Android SDK+ Integration Guide

Language
For Rokt Ecommerce partners. This complete guide is for ecommerce businesses integrating Rokt into transaction experiences they own. It is not an advertiser implementation guide. Advertisers should use the Rokt Ads integration guides.

This page explains how to implement the Rokt Ecommerce Android SDK+. The SDK+ passes user and transaction data to Rokt on configured screens so Rokt can render relevant experiences, such as offers on confirmation screens.

1. Add the Rokt SDK+ to Your Android App#

Rokt SDK+ requires a minimum Android API level of 21+ (Android 5.0 Lollipop).

Update your Gradle file to include the necessary dependencies:

build.gradle.kts dependencies
dependencies {
implementation("com.mparticle:android-rokt-kit:6.0.0")
implementation("com.mparticle:android-core:6.0.0")
}
build.gradle dependencies
dependencies {
implementation "com.mparticle:android-rokt-kit:6.0.0"
implementation "com.mparticle:android-core:6.0.0"
}

2. Initialize the Rokt SDK+#

Insert the following initialization snippet in the onCreate() method of your Application class. The SDK+ must be initialized before any other SDK+ API calls. Replace your-key and your-secret with the key and secret provided by your Rokt team.

Application.onCreate initialization
import com.mparticle.MParticle
import com.mparticle.MParticleOptions
import com.mparticle.networking.NetworkOptions

class YourApplicationClass : Application() {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()

// Identify the current user:
// If you do not have the user's email address, you can pass in a null value
val identifyRequest = IdentityApiRequest.withEmptyUser()
// Preferred: pass the customer's raw, unhashed email via .email().
// If you can only provide a SHA-256-hashed email, remove .email() and use .userIdentity(Other) instead — do not pass both.
.email("j.smith@example.com")
.userIdentity(MParticle.IdentityType.Other, "SHA-256 hashed email") // only if raw email unavailable
// If you can only provide a SHA-256-hashed mobile number, use 'other2' instead of MobileNumber — do not pass both.
.userIdentity(MParticle.IdentityType.Other2, "SHA-256 hashed mobile number") // only if raw mobile unavailable
// Customer phone number in E.164 format.
.userIdentity(MParticle.IdentityType.MobileNumber, "+13125551515")
// Partner's internal customer/account identifier (if the user is logged in).
.customerId("cust_10482")
.build()

// If the user is identified with their email address, set additional user attributes.
val identifyTask = BaseIdentityTask()
.addSuccessListener { identityApiResult ->
val user = identityApiResult.user
user.setUserAttribute("example attribute key", "example attribute value")
}

// Enter your custom subdomain if you are using a first-party domain configuration (optional)
val networkOptions = NetworkOptions.builder()
.setCustomBaseURL("https://rkt.example.com")
.build()

val options: MParticleOptions = MParticleOptions.builder(this)
.credentials(
"your-key", // The key provided by your Rokt account manager
"your-secret" // The secret provided by your Rokt account manager
)
// Specify the data environment with environment:
// Set it to Development if you are still testing your integration.
// Set it to Production if your integration is ready for production data.
// The default is AutoDetect which attempts to detect the environment automatically.
.environment(MParticle.Environment.Development)
.networkOptions(networkOptions)
.identify(identifyRequest)
.identifyTask(identifyTask)
.build()

MParticle.start(options)
}
}

When inserting the initialization snippet into your Application class, you will see customizable fields for:

1Entering your Rokt key and secret#

Set your-key and your-secret inside credentials to the key and secret values provided by your Rokt account manager.

2Setting your data environment#

Set environment to MParticle.Environment.Development while testing to route data to the Development environment, and MParticle.Environment.Production to send live customer activity to Production.

3Entering a custom first-party domain#

Follow the instructions in First-Party Domain Configuration, and set customBaseURL on NetworkOptions to your custom subdomain. Routing the Rokt SDK+ through your own domain reduces the risk of ad blockers and browsers from blocking ads or data. Omit networkOptions to send traffic to Rokt's default endpoints.

4Identifying your user and setting attributes#

In identifyRequest, pass the user's raw, un-hashed email via .email(). For hashed emails and other identifiers, see Supported User Identifiers. Once identified, use the identifyTask success listener to set additional user attributes — see User Attributes for the recommended list.

identifyTask success listener
val identifyTask = BaseIdentityTask()
.addSuccessListener { identityApiResult ->
val user = identityApiResult.user
user.setUserAttribute("example attribute key", "example attribute value")
}
note

Always include identifyRequest in the initialization snippet. If you don't have the user's email at initialization, omit the .email() call — the SDK+ will still initialize, and you can identify the user later via 3. Identify the User. See Error Handling for how to handle the addFailureListener callback — without error handling you may see data consistency issues at scale.

Initializing with fontsDirect link to Initializing with fonts

Instead of or in addition to supplying fonts on One Platform, you may use fonts already bundled with your application. This removes the potential for fonts to be downloaded at initialization time, reducing network utilization and the chance of download errors.

Using font assetsDirect link to Using font assets

Pass a map to the roktOptions builder method that maps font PostScript names to their filepath in the assets directory. Check with your account manager if you are unsure of the PostScript names being used in your layout.

Font assets
import com.mparticle.MParticle
import com.mparticle.MParticleOptions

class YourApplication : Application() {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
val options: MParticleOptions = MParticleOptions.builder(this)
.credentials("your-key", "your-secret")
.environment(MParticle.Environment.Development)
.roktOptions(RoktOptions(fontFilePathMap = mapOf("Arial-Bold" to "fonts/arialbold.otf")))
.build()
MParticle.start(options)
}
}

3. Identify the User#

The SDK+ initialization script identifies the current user using the identifiers you provided in the script's identifyRequest object. After SDK initialization, you should keep the user's identity in sync whenever they log in, log out, or otherwise provide an identifier (for example, during checkout) using the appropriate method as described below.

Supported user identifiersDirect link to Supported user identifiers

Show supported user identifiers
FieldTypeDescription
emailstringPass the customer's raw, unhashed email address via .email("j.smith@example.com").
mobilestringPass the customer's phone number in E.164 format via .userIdentity(MParticle.IdentityType.MobileNumber, "+13125551515").
customeridstringPass your internal customer/account identifier via .customerId("cust_10482"). Send on every screen for logged-in users.
otherstringPass a SHA-256-hashed email via .userIdentity(MParticle.IdentityType.Other, "hashed email"). Only use when the raw email cannot be provided.
other2stringPass a SHA-256-hashed mobile number via .userIdentity(MParticle.IdentityType.Other2, "hashed mobile").

To identify the user:

1Create an identifyRequest object#

Create an identifyRequest object to contain the user's identifiers. You should integrate the user's raw, unhashed email address into the email field.

2Create an identityCallback#

To set additional user attributes, create an identityCallback. If the identifyRequest succeeds, then any user attributes you set inside the callback are assigned to the identified user.

3Send the request using the method that matches the user's action#

Pass the identifyRequest (and optional identityCallback) to the method that matches the user's action:

  • MParticle.getInstance()?.Identity()?.login: call when the user logs in or creates an account.
  • MParticle.getInstance()?.Identity()?.identify: call when you obtain the user's email mid-session without a login transition (for example, a guest enters their email at checkout).
  • MParticle.getInstance()?.Identity()?.logout: call when the user logs out.

Calling these methods transitions the SDK's record of the current user's state. The login and logout methods also automatically log a corresponding event to improve Rokt's attribution.

For example, to identify a user named Jane Smith with the email address j.smith@example.com, mobile number +13125551515, and customer ID cust_10482:

Identify Jane Smith
// 1. Create the identifyRequest object
val identifyRequest = IdentityApiRequest.withEmptyUser()
// Preferred: pass the customer's raw, unhashed email via .email().
// If you can only provide a SHA-256-hashed email, remove .email() and use .userIdentity(Other) instead — do not pass both.
.email("j.smith@example.com")
.userIdentity(MParticle.IdentityType.Other, "SHA-256 hashed email") // only if raw email unavailable
// If you can only provide a SHA-256-hashed mobile number, use 'other2' instead of MobileNumber — do not pass both.
.userIdentity(MParticle.IdentityType.Other2, "SHA-256 hashed mobile number") // only if raw mobile unavailable
.userIdentity(MParticle.IdentityType.MobileNumber, "+13125551515")
.customerId("cust_10482")
.build()

// 2. Optionally set user attributes once the request succeeds.
val identityCallback = BaseIdentityTask()
.addSuccessListener { identityApiResult ->
val user = identityApiResult.user
user.setUserAttribute("firstname", "Jane")
user.setUserAttribute("lastname", "Smith")
}

// 3. Call one of the following methods that best matches the user's action:
MParticle.getInstance()?.Identity()?.login(identifyRequest, identityCallback) // Call when the user logs in or creates an account
MParticle.getInstance()?.Identity()?.identify(identifyRequest, identityCallback) // Call when you obtain the user's email mid-session, but not during a login
MParticle.getInstance()?.Identity()?.logout() // Call when the user logs out

4. Set User Attributes#

Set user attributes progressively as the user navigates your app, not just at checkout. The more attributes you set, the better Rokt can resolve the customer and deliver relevant offers.

Set User Attributes
import com.mparticle.MParticle

// Retrieve the current user. This will only succeed if you have identified the user during SDK+ initialization or by calling the identify method.
val currentUser = MParticle.getInstance()?.Identity()?.currentUser

// Once you have successfully set the current user to `currentUser`, you can set user attributes with:
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("custom-attribute-name", "custom-attribute-value")
// Note: all user attributes (including list attributes and tags) must have distinct names.

// Rokt recommends setting as many of the following user attributes as possible:
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("firstname", "John")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("lastname", "Doe")
// Phone numbers can be formatted either as '1234567890', or '+1 (234) 567-8901'
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("mobile", "3125551515")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("age", "33")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("gender", "M")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("billingcity", "Brooklyn")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("billingstate", "NY")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("billingzipcode", "123456")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("dob", "yyyymmdd")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("title", "Mr")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("language", "en")
currentUser?.setUserAttribute("predictedltv", "136.23")

// You can create a user attribute to contain a list of values
currentUser?.setUserAttributeList("favorite-genres", listOf("documentary", "comedy", "romance", "drama"))

// To remove a user attribute, call removeUserAttribute and pass in the attribute name. All user attributes share the same key space.
currentUser?.removeUserAttribute("attribute-to-remove")

Appendix C: Error handlingDirect link to Appendix C: Error handling

The IDSync API is intended to be central to your app's state and is designed to be fast and highly-available. Similar to how your app may prevent users from logging in, logging out, or modifying their state without an internet connection — treat these APIs as gating operations to maintain a consistent user state. The SDK+ will not retry API calls automatically, but provides callback APIs so you can do so according to your business logic.

If you do not implement error handling, you may see data consistency issues at scale.

The SDK+ always returns the HTTP status and body of the underlying HTTP response. For client-side issues (device out of coverage, client-side timeout, invalid identity requests), the SDK+ returns IdentityApi.UNKNOWN_ERROR along with an informative error message.

IDSync error handling
MParticle.getInstance()?.Identity()?.identify(identifyRequest)
?.addFailureListener { identityHttpResponse ->
if (identityHttpResponse?.httpCode == IdentityApi.UNKNOWN_ERROR) {
// Device is likely offline — retry the request
} else if (identityHttpResponse?.httpCode == IdentityApi.THROTTLE_ERROR) {
// Throttled (429) — retry with backoff
}
}
?.addSuccessListener { identityApiResult ->
// Proceed with the identified user
}
IDSync error handling
MParticle.getInstance().Identity().identify(identifyRequest)
.addFailureListener(new TaskFailureListener() {
@Override
public void onFailure(IdentityHttpResponse identityHttpResponse) {
if (identityHttpResponse.getHttpCode() == IdentityApi.UNKNOWN_ERROR) {
// Device is likely offline — retry the request
} else if (identityHttpResponse.getHttpCode() == IdentityApi.THROTTLE_ERROR) {
// Throttled (429) — retry with backoff
}
}
})
.addSuccessListener(new TaskSuccessListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(IdentityApiResult identityApiResult) {
// Proceed with the identified user
}
});

Appendix D: Passing session ID from web to nativeDirect link to Appendix D: Passing session ID from web to native

When a user journey spans both web and native platforms, you can maintain a consistent Rokt session by passing the session ID from the Web SDK+ to the Android SDK+. This is useful for hybrid flows where users complete an action in a WebView (such as a payment page) and return to the native app for confirmation.

Getting the session ID from Web SDK+Direct link to Getting the session ID from Web SDK+

After calling selectPlacements, the session ID is available on the selection context:

Retrieve sessionId from the selection context
const selection = await launcher.selectPlacements({
identifier: "checkout",
attributes: {
email: "user@example.com",
// ... other attributes
}
});

const sessionId = await selection.context.sessionId;
note

The session ID is a unique GUID assigned to the current user journey. It is useful for debugging and for correlating a user's activity across your web and native surfaces.

Pass the session ID to your native app using a deep link:

Deep-link to native app
const deepLink = `myapp://confirmation?sessionId=${encodeURIComponent(sessionId)}`;
window.location.href = deepLink;

Setting the session IDDirect link to Setting the session ID

Extract the session ID from the deep link and pass it to the SDK+ before calling selectPlacements.

Handle deep link and set sessionId
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

intent.data?.getQueryParameter("sessionId")?.let { sessionId ->
MParticle.getInstance()?.Rokt()?.setSessionId(sessionId)
}

// Proceed with your confirmation flow

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

Uri data = getIntent().getData();
if (data != null) {
String sessionId = data.getQueryParameter("sessionId");
if (sessionId != null) {
MParticle.getInstance().Rokt().setSessionId(sessionId);
}
}

// Proceed with your confirmation flow
}

NotesDirect link to Notes

  • Call setSessionId before selectPlacements to ensure the session is used.
  • Empty strings are ignored and will not update the session.
  • Always URL-encode the session ID when passing as a query parameter.

8. Test Your Integration#

To confirm the SDK+ initializes and events log correctly:

1Enable verbose SDK+ logging#

Enable verbose SDK+ logging before initialization so you can see what's being sent.

Enable verbose SDK+ logging
MParticle.setLogLevel(MParticle.LogLevel.VERBOSE)

2Build and run your app#

Build and run your app with environment = MParticle.Environment.Development.

3Trigger selectPlacements#

Trigger selectPlacements on the screen where the placement should render and confirm the placement loads.

4Verify events#

Verify the events are logged and the identifyRequest call succeeds.

TroubleshootingDirect link to Troubleshooting

If the placement doesn't render or events don't appear, check the Android Logcat for Rokt SDK+ errors. Common issues:

Initialization errorsDirect link to Initialization errors

  • Confirm credentials key and secret match the values from your Rokt account manager.
  • Confirm MParticle.start(options) runs in Application.onCreate() before any selectPlacements or logEvent call.

Identity errorsDirect link to Identity errors

If the identifyTask failure listener fires, see Error Handling for the IdentityApi error codes and retry guidance. Without error handling you may see data consistency issues at scale.

Placement not renderingDirect link to Placement not rendering

  • Confirm the placement identifier (e.g. RoktExperience) matches what your Rokt account manager configured.
  • For embedded placements, confirm the embedded view identifier (e.g. RoktEmbedded1) matches the layout configuration.
  • Check that the attributes map contains at least email, firstname, lastname, billingzipcode, and confirmationref.

SSL handshake errors when using a proxyDirect link to SSL handshake errors when using a proxy

While testing in your development environment, you might hit SSL handshake errors when an HTTP debugging proxy like Charles or Proxyman is running, or when you're behind a corporate network proxy. This is expected: the SDK+ pins its SSL certificate, and a proxy intercepts HTTPS by presenting its own certificate, which fails the pin.

To let the proxy inspect SDK+ traffic, disable pinning in your development build by adding setPinningDisabledInDevelopment(true) to the NetworkOptions builder in your SDK+ initialization script.

Disable SSL pinning for proxy debugging
val networkOptions = NetworkOptions.builder()
// Only takes effect in the development environment; production builds stay pinned.
.setPinningDisabledInDevelopment(true)
.build()
