Picasso

If you use Picasso, use it with the OkHttpClient that's been instrumented with the Datadog SDK for RUM and APM information about network requests made by Picasso.

        val picasso = Picasso.Builder(context)
                .downloader(OkHttp3Downloader(okHttpClient))
                // …
                .build()
        Picasso.setSingletonInstance(picasso)

Retrofit

If you use Retrofit, use it with the OkHttpClient that's been instrumented with the Datadog SDK for RUM and APM information about network requests made with Retrofit.

        val retrofitClient = Retrofit.Builder()
                .client(okHttpClient)
                // …
                .build()

Apollo (GraphQL)

If you use Apollo, use it with the OkHttpClient that's been instrumented with the Datadog SDK for RUM and APM information about all the queries performed through Apollo client.

        val apolloClient =  ApolloClient.builder()
                 .okHttpClient(okHttpClient)
                 .serverUrl(<APOLLO_SERVER_URL>)
                 .build()

Kotlin Coroutines

If you use Kotlin Coroutines, see Datadog's dedicated library with extensions for RUM and with extensions for Trace

Looking up your logs

When you open your console in Datadog, navigate to the Log Explorer. In the search bar, type source:android. This filters your logs to only show the ones coming from Android or Android TV applications.

Looking up your spans

When you open your console in Datadog, navigate to APM > Services. In the list of services, you can see all your Android and Android TV applications (by default, the service name matches your application's package name, for example: com.example.android). You can access all the traces started from your application.

Looking up your RUM events

When you open your console in Datadog, navigate to the RUM Explorer. In the side bar, you can select your application and explore Sessions, Views, Actions, Errors, Resources, and Long Tasks.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issue when using the Datadog SDK for Android and Android TV, please take a look at the troubleshooting checklist, common problems, or at the existing issues.

Datadog cannot guarantee the Android and Android TV SDK's performance on Roku devices running with Android OS. If you encounter any issues when using the SDK for these devices, contact Datadog Support or open an issue in our GitHub project.
