Android SDK Changelog

6.13.0

September 12, 2024

Improve SDK startup performance.
Fix issue with capturing details of network requests with long URLs.
Increase default ANR call stack depth to 200 frames.

6.12.2

September 11, 2024

Fix race condition on app startup when native crash capture is enabled that could result in a crash when the native delegate is accessed before the library is loaded

6.12.1

September 6, 2024

Fix JVM crash recording and Embrace API request retries when Embrace enums are obfuscated.
Improve delivery retry of sessions ended by a native crash or background process termination.

6.12.0

September 5, 2024

Important

This version contains a bug where obfuscating Embrace classes will lead to JVM crashes not being recorded and failed requests to Embrace not being retried after that app process terminates.

This version should not be used, but you can workaround this by adding the following keep rule to your Proguard file so R8 will bypass obfuscation for the matched code:

-keep class io.embrace.android.embracesdk.** { *; }

Improve SDK startup performance.
Increase resilience of telemetry delivery under poor network conditions.
Add configuration to redact values for custom property keys on a denylist.
Fix bug at build time that invalidated the Gradle configuration cache when the native crash capture feature was disabled.

6.11.0

August 27, 2024

Update cached background activities when session properties are modified.
Apply configuration defined in embrace-config.json properly if appId is not specified (Fix for #1219).
Restore access via synthetic properties in Kotlin for getDeviceId() and getLastRunEndState() (Fix for #1253).
Update OpenTelemetry Java SDK and BoM to 1.41.0.

6.10.0

August 13, 2024

Support Android 15 and devices that use 16KB native page size.
Updated minimum requirements to the following:
- JDK 11
- Android SDK Platform 34
- Gradle 7.5.1
- AGP 7.4.2
- Kotlin 1.8.22
Improve R8 ruleset to further reduce the size of the SDK binary.
Upload native symbols by default during the build process unless explicitly disabled.
Split main SDK module (io.embrace.embrace-android-sdk) into several modules.
- This is an internal change and has no direct user impact. App dependencies on Embrace remain unchanged.
Embrace.getDeviceId() and Embrace.getLastEndState() only accessible as functions but not as properties in Kotlin.

6.9.2

August 1, 2024

Fix session recording after app backgrounding if Background Activity is disabled.

Important

Version 6.9.0 and 6.9.1 have an issue recording sessions after an app backgrounds if Background Activity is disabled.

Do not use these versions of the SDK. This issue has been addressed in 6.9.2.

6.9.1

July 10, 2024

Fix the SDK version sent in session payloads

6.9.0

July 4, 2024

OpenTelemetry compatibility improvements:
- Provide implementation of the OpenTelemetry Tracing API.
  - Spans recorded through this API and implementation are equivalent to those recorded using the Embrace Traces API.
  - This can be obtained through the getOpenTelemetry() method, which will return working implementations for methods involving tracing. Methods involving Logs and Metrics are no-ops at the current time.
- Stopping spans through the Embrace Traces API no longer implicitly sets Status to OK.
- Add telemetry.distro.* resource attributes to exported signals.
- Update OpenTelemetry SDK dependency to version 1.38 of the OpenTelemetry BOM.
- Consume semantic conventions from OTel Semantic Conventions for Java.
Enhance Traces API to support behavior exposed via the OpenTelemetry Tracing API.
Change internal endpoint to which session data is sent (no user-facing behavior changes).
Issue build warning for apps that have minSdk < 24 and are using AGP < 8.3.
- If minSdk is lower than 24 (i.e. Android 5 and/or 6 is supported by the app), AGP version 8.3+ must be used so the app can be desugared with the proper setting.
- See this question in the FAQ for details.
Fix DexGuard support.

6.8.3

July 17, 2024

No change to functionality. Remove error log integration verification explicitly for apps that don't use R8 to strip out unreferenced classes.

6.8.2

June 7, 2024

Remove dependency on the configuration attribute enable_automatic_activity_capture for manually capturing views

6.8.1

June 4, 2024

Fix a build error while reading the api_token from an environment variable.

6.8.0

May 28, 2024

Complete migration to OpenTelemetry, which means all app data recorded by the SDK can be sent directly to OpenTelemetry Collectors from the app.
Allow the SDK to be used without being an Embrace customer, so data is only sent to OpenTelemetry Collectors and not to Embrace.
Verify as part of the build that desugaring is enabled for apps supporting Android versions less than 7.0 (i.e. minSdkVerion < 24).
Fix the location we look for flavor-specific Embrace configuration files during the build.
Remove excessive SDK logging.

6.7.0

April 22, 2024

Support configuration of OpenTelemetry Exporters to export Logs data as OpenTelemetry LogRecord.

6.6.0

April 19, 2024

Important

API Desugaring is now a requirement for apps that support Android 5 and 6. This is a simple, well-supported process done by Android build tooling that backports certain Java 8 language features onto older Android versions that didn't have support. For more information, please see Google's documentation here

THE OpenTelemetry Release! The Embrace Android SDK now uses the OpenTelemetry Java SDK at its core.
This means the bulk of the telemetry is recorded as OTel signals, so they can be sent directly to OTel Collectors from the app using any Java OTLP Exporter that is compatible with Android. Telemetry types modeled by Embrace like sessions, crashes, ANRs, and logs have canonical representations as OTel signals using a combination of OTel and in-house semantic conventions.
The number of Embrace conventions will hopefully shrink going forward as the community comes together around a set of shared semantic conventions to standardize the world of mobile telemetry. We will build upon this new foundation in the coming releases to bring together the worlds of OpenTelemetry, mobile client performance observability, and RUM!

6.5.0

March 14, 2024

Important

Increase our minimum Gradle version to 6.5.1

Fully support configuration cache on all Gradle versions.
Fix issue with active Moments being lost when a new session starts.

6.4.0

March 6, 2024

Traces improvements
- Support configuration of OpenTelemetry Exporters to export Traces data as OpenTelemetry Spans (beta).
- Change timestamps parameters of the APIs to use milliseconds to better align with Android developer expectations.
  - Note: timestamps that are in nanoseconds will be detected and converted for now so existing instrumentation will still work, but this will be removed in an upcoming release.
- Increase per-session limit of spans to 500 in total.
- New methods added:
  - "getSpan" that returns a reference to an active or recently ended EmbraceSpan.
  - "startSpan" that creates and starts a span directly.
- New functionality for existing methods:
  - Allow custom timestamps to be specified when starting and stopping a span.
  - Support adding attributes and span events to "recordSpan".
Increase transparency of SDK startup by adding custom sections to traces recorded using Android system tracing libraries like androidx.tracing.
- Note: only run Android system tracing on release builds running on real devices. Debug builds and emulators will not yield accurate data.
Optimize React Native JavaScript bundleId retrieval to better support CodePush (React Native only)
Allow configuration cache to be enabled for Gradle 8.3+
- Note: for Gradle 8.3+, running Embrace Gradle plugin will invalidate the configuration cache

6.3.2

February 23, 2024

Improved performance and stability of NDK serialization while the app is under memory pressure
Added back support of OkHttp 3.13.0+, which was initially removed in this major version

April 8, 2020

Added option to send session end message asynchronously
Only check the app's disk usage once during a session. This operation could take too long on certain devices for apps with large numbers of files to be done repeatedly
Fixed bug with reporting of network switches when the device had no connectivity

4.2.2

March 31, 2020

Fixed bug where temporary session properties would only be cleared on cold start. Now they are cleared at the end of each session
Show all custom configuration settings in the console log at startup
Fixed a bug that could prevent network, view, and tap captures from working when multiple variants were built with a single Gradle command
Fixed a bug where incorrect warning logs about deprecated settings could be shown

4.2.1

March 12, 2020

Fixed issue that prevented removal of session properties

4.2.0

March 11, 2020

Added ability to add properties to sessions
Capture additional thread info at the time of a crash
Fixed bug that caused clearAllUserPersonas to not clear all user personas
Fixed network capture issue that was causing network calls with IP addresses to be dropped

4.1.0

March 3, 2020

Added support to capture fragments manually
Removed incorrect build-time logs that referenced the usage of deprecated features
Added validations to handle usage of API-level-restricted functions

4.0.1

January 16, 2020

Fixed bug in Embrace Gradle plugin that could lead to SDK config not being properly read when building an app bundle

4.0.0

January 14, 2020

Added a more flexible configuration approach that simplifies how custom configurations can be set up for different build variants
Added user info association that is set during a session even if it was cleared before the session ended
Added optional argument to endSession method to clear user info when ending the session
Added ability to ignore non-serializable log and event properties
Fixed crash caused by trying to capture null headers from network requests.
Fixed a network path override issue when network requests ended in connection errors.
Improved sourcemap upload task for React Native

3.7.2

November 7, 2019

Added a config setting to allow disabling of gunzipping of requests made with the native Android network request framework. By default the SDK handles the gunzipping to allow response size to be computed, but this can interfere with certain services.

3.7.1

October 22, 2019

Improves capture of React Native crashes.

3.7.0

October 21, 2019

Added option to disable capture of tap coordinates.
Added support for React Native crashes.
Added support for improved React Native log stack traces.
Added support for upload of React Native source maps to the upload script.
Fixed bug that could cause failure in reading the swazzling cache.

3.6.2

September 8, 2019

Fixed issue that prevented uploading of mapping info when using r8

3.6.1

September 13, 2019

Added option to allow startup screenshots to be disabled

3.6.0

September 10, 2019

Removed network requests made when setting user info
Fixed bug that could cause an exception when using other SDKs that monitor network traffic
Fixed bug that prevented connection error types from being correctly reported

3.5.1

August 12, 2019

Handles attempt to set trace ID before SDK initialization
Re-added removed logNetworkCall and logNetworkClientError methods

3.5.0

August 9, 2019

We added support for passing a Throwable to logError. If you pass a Throwable, the stack trace from the Throwable will be used instead of the stack trace from where the logError method was called.
Log messages are now limited to 128 characters. Contact us if you need longer log messages.
We moved more of the work done for logInfo/Warning/Error calls to a worker thread to prevent the logging calls from blocking the threads they are called from.
We set the timestamp for log messages immediately after the log method is called rather than in a worker thread. This should slightly improve the accuracy of the log timestamps.
We reduced aggressiveness of config network requests. If you were offline and the SDK had never received a config, it would keep trying to get one more often than it should have.
We added a method to get the Embrace-assigned device ID from the SDK.
We now allow trace IDs to be captured from network requests and sent to Embrace.
Gracefully handle multiple attempts to start the SDK
Switched from using api to implementation for dependencies
Added missing public event-related methods to match the iOS SDK

3.4.1

July 22, 2019

Fixed typos in methods to set bytes in and out for manually-captured requests

3.4.0

July 22, 2019

Added support for manual capture of network requests. The SDK is capable of automatically capturing the majority of REST network calls made by applications, but this new method allows recording of network requests that are not automatically captured, such as gRPC requests.
