Set user attributes

You can set optional attributes such as email, phone number, etc, to the user of your app. You can then use attributes to create user segments or just view them in CRM.

Setting user attributes

To set user attributes, call .updateProfile() method:

let builder = AdaptyProfileParameters.Builder()
.with(email: "[email protected]")
.with(phoneNumber: "+18888888888")
.with(facebookAnonymousId: "facebookAnonymousId")
.with(amplitudeUserId: "amplitudeUserId")
.with(amplitudeDeviceId: "amplitudeDeviceId")
.with(mixpanelUserId: "mixpanelUserId")
.with(appmetricaProfileId: "appmetricaProfileId")
.with(appmetricaDeviceId: "appmetricaDeviceId")
.with(firstName: "John")
.with(lastName: "Appleseed")
.with(gender: .other)
.with(birthday: Date())

do {
try await Adapty.updateProfile(params: builder.build())
} catch {
// handle the error
}

Please note that the attributes that you've previously set with the updateProfile method won't be reset.

App Tracking Transparency Status (starting iOS 14)

If your application uses AppTrackingTransparency framework and presents an app-tracking authorization request to the user, then you should send the authorization status to Adapty.

if #available(iOS 14, macOS 11.0, *) {
let builder = AdaptyProfileParameters.Builder()
.with(appTrackingTransparencyStatus: .authorized)

do {
try await Adapty.updateProfile(params: builder.build())
} catch {
// handle the error
}
}
warning

We strongly recommend that you send this value as early as possible when it changes, only in that case the data will be sent in a timely manner to the integrations you have configured.

Custom user attributes

You can set your own custom attributes. These are usually related to your app usage. For example, for fitness applications, they might be the number of exercises per week, for language learning app user's knowledge level, and so on. You can use them in segments to create targeted paywalls and offers, and you can also use them in analytics to figure out which product metrics affect the revenue most.

do {
builder = try builder.with(customAttribute: "value1", forKey: "key1")
} catch {
// handle key/value validation error
}

To remove existing key, use .withRemoved(customAttributeForKey:) method:

do {
builder = try builder.withRemoved(customAttributeForKey: "key2")
} catch {
// handle error
}

Sometimes you need to figure out what custom attributes have already been installed before. To do this, use the customAttributes field of the AdaptyProfile object.

warning

Keep in mind that the value of customAttributes may be out of date since the user attributes can be sent from different devices at any time so the attributes on the server might have been changed after the last sync.

Limits

You can set up to 30 custom attributes per user, with key names up to 30 characters long and values up to 50 characters long.

  • Up to 30 custom attributes per user
  • Key name up to 30 characters long. The key name can include alphanumeric characters and any of the following: _ - .
  • Value up to 50 characters long
