Register your Mobile App
Create an App ID so you can build and target mobile experiences.
Before you can build in the mobile builder, register your app to generate an App ID. Your developer uses this ID, together with your Account ID, to connect the Appcues Mobile SDK to your account.
Register your app
-
In Appcues, go to Settings > Apps & Installation.
-
Click Add App.
-
Enter your app's name and select the app type — iOS, Android, or a cross-platform framework.
-
Click Save. A unique App ID is generated and displayed.
Share your IDs with your developer
Give your mobile developer both values so they can initialize the SDK:
- App ID — from Settings > Apps & Installation
- Account ID — from Settings > Account ID
Once the SDK is initialized, your developer can identify users and track screens and events. You can then target mobile Flows and view analytics. See Install the Mobile SDK for the developer steps.
Managing multiple apps
You may have more than one app — for example, custom client builds of the same core app, or pre-production versions. There are two common approaches:
-
Unique App IDs — create a separate App ID for each app version and use it to set up that version. You build a separate Flow for each app.
-
Shared App ID — create one App ID and use it across similar app versions. You build Flows once and either target them to all apps with that ID, or restrict them to specific apps using a property like App Name or App Version.
