How do I use gameanalytics.com on construct 2?

How do I use gameanalytics.com on construct 2?

http://www.gameanalytics.com

They have a REST API.: http://apidocs.gameanalytics.com/REST.html

Has anyone manage to use this on a construct 2 project?

AJAX the API

gumshoe2029 I don't understand. If you managed to implement it successfully, can you post an example? Thanks

Oops, sorry for the super late reply. I overloaded my feed thing.

http://www.gameanalytics.com/docs/rest-api -- you have to sign in to see their API, then you can use the AJAX object to build GET/POST calls to use their API and responses.

1. You don't have to sign in to see their API. The link is posted in my first post here:

http://apidocs.gameanalytics.com/REST.html

2. As you see in the later posts I tried to use the AJAX plugin to send post messages but with no success.

I have no experience in ajax but you can try:

Tag: "a"

URL: "sandbox-api.gameanalytics.com"

Data: "{platform: ios, os_version: ios 8.1, sdk_version: rest api v2}"

Method: "POST /v2/<game_key>/init HTTP/1.1"

Cause i think the issue is on the "data" field.

No. it doesn't work .

Ok,

[quote:2x5vsb5g]Do not use production keys on the sandbox-api; it will only authorize the sandbox game keys.

Production

API endpoint for production api.gameanalytics.com

Sandbox

API endpoint for sandbox sandbox-api.gameanalytics.com

You need to change the URL to "api.gameanalytics.com" if you want to use your own game_key and secret_key.

After that, i recommend you to try the python example on https://apidocs.gameanalytics.com/REST. ... on-example

Change the line 40-to-45 like:

# sandbox game keys
game_key = "your_game_key"
secret_key = "your_game_secret_key"

# sandbox API urls
url_init = 'http://api.gameanalytics.com/v2/' + game_key + '/init'
url_events = 'http://api.gameanalytics.com/v2/' + game_key + '/events'
[/code:2x5vsb5g]

Run the example and you will get something like:

----- GameAnalytics REST V2 Example --------
Gzip enabled!
--------------------------------------------
Init call successful !
Events submitted !
Events submitted !

After that, you need to pass this example to Construct2 AJAX.

This is just the init message. Did you made a test with your keys and it works?

If you made a test can you post the capx file here? Thanks

The python example does more than te init call:

[quote:35ahbns9]make an init call

check if disabled

calculate client timestamp offset from server

start a session

add a user event (session start) to queue

add a business event + some design events to queue

submit events in queue

add some design events to queue

add session_end event to queue

submit events in queue

I try using my own keys and it´s seems to work:

You need to enter your GameAnalytics admin panel and skip the guide to view your gamedata:

If you made a test can you post the capx file here? Thanks

I will continue working, trying to recreate the same phyton example with the construct ajax object and when i get it working, I will publish here the .capx.

Hi there,

Just to let you know GameAnalytics has just released an official GameAnalytics Construct 2 which can be downloaded from here:

github.com/GameAnalytics/GA-SDK-CONSTRUCT and there is also documentation on how to use it here: github.com/GameAnalytics/GA-SDK-CONSTRUCT/wiki

Hope it can become useful for you.

Thanks,

There is a problem with this plugin. It seams that when you try to add an action the texts are disappearing..

EDIT: also the plugin throws an error and is unusable
