LivePlugins Quick Start

Transform analytics events with JavaScript:

// Optional: provide fallback JavaScript file
let fallbackURL = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "fallback", withExtension: "js")

let livePlugins = LivePlugins(fallbackFileURL: fallbackURL)
Analytics.main.add(plugin: livePlugins)

→ See full plugin development guide

Signals Quick Start

Capture and process user activity automatically:

// Add LivePlugins first (required when using Signals)
let livePlugins = LivePlugins()
Analytics.main.add(plugin: livePlugins)

let config = SignalsConfiguration(
    writeKey: "<YOUR WRITE KEY>",
    useSwiftUIAutoSignal: true,
    useNetworkAutoSignal: true
)

Signals.shared.useConfiguration(config)
Analytics.main.add(plugin: Signals.shared)

→ See full signals configuration and usage

Destination Filters Quick Start

Filter events on-device using your Segment workspace rules:

let filters = DestinationFilters()
Analytics.main.add(plugin: filters)

→ See full destination filters setup

Complete Setup Example

Using all Analytics Live features together:

import AnalyticsLive

// 1. Set up LivePlugins first (required if using with Signals)
let fallbackURL = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "fallback", withExtension: "js")
let livePlugins = LivePlugins(fallbackFileURL: fallbackURL)
Analytics.main.add(plugin: livePlugins)

// 2. Configure and add Signals
let signalsConfig = SignalsConfiguration(writeKey: "<YOUR WRITE KEY>")
Signals.shared.useConfiguration(signalsConfig)
Analytics.main.add(plugin: Signals.shared)

// 3. Add Destination Filters
let filters = DestinationFilters()
Analytics.main.add(plugin: filters)
