Collect Your First Crash Report

Setting up the Crash Reporter​

The Embrace SDK automatically captures JVM crash reports. You can test this out with the following code. This code will crash your app and should not go in production:

throw RuntimeException("This is a crash")

Relaunch the app and refresh the Embrace dashboard: you should see the uploaded crash. Depending on network latency and other variables a crash can ocassionally take a few minutes to show up.

NDK crash capture​

The Embrace SDK does not automatically capture NDK crash reports. To enable NDK crash reports add the ndk_enabled setting to your app/src/main/embrace-config.json file:

{
  "ndk_enabled": true
}

Symbolicating Stack Traces​

If you have obfuscated your application with ProGuard/DexGuard/R8 the captured crashes will contain obfuscated method names. Embrace's Gradle Plugin will automatically upload mapping files at build-time to get you human-readable stacktraces from production.
