Before you add apps to
Checks, you may
need to enable or configure certain aspects of your development environment or
your application.
Android apps
Checks runs an analysis on the public version of your application in the Google
Play Store. No integrations are needed to enable features such as compliance
monitoring, Store Disclosure reports, or data monitoring. Other features may
require you to configure your app to support them, as described here.
Enable the Android Gradle Plugin
The Checks SDK tracking feature is provided using the Android Gradle
Plugin in Android
Studio. When you build your app with Gradle, it includes metadata that describes
the dependencies that are compiled into your app. See Dependencies
metadata
in the Android Studio documentation for more information.
Due to the SDK tracking feature's dependency on the Android Gradle Plugin in
Android Studio, SDK tracking may not be available in other development
environments such as earlier versions of Unity.
In order to run the Checks SDK tracking feature, the Android Gradle
Plugin must be
enabled in your app, and your app must be built with Gradle. Make sure you have
a recent version of Android Gradle Plugin in your instance of Android Studio,
and that you have not opted-out of this feature.
