Enabling In-App messages

In-App messages are disabled by default. To enable them, you need to call .withFullFeaturedInApps(). Without calling this method, In-App messages will trigger the MESSAGE_RECEIVED broadcast event but will not be displayed within the WebView.

Notice

Enabling this feature also enables JavaScript execution on the webView for the feature proper work

    MobileMessaging.Builder(application)
        .withFullFeaturedInApps()
        .build()

expand to see Java code

new MobileMessaging.Builder(application)
        .withFullFeaturedInApps()
        .build();

Handling tap on In-App messages

Following on-tap actions are supported for the Banner and for the action buttons of other In-App message types:

• Open URL in browser
• Open URL within the webView
• Open page in mobile app

More information can be found on the How to define specific action on notification or in-app primary button tap(open url, deeplink)?

Additionally, MobileMessaging SDK will trigger:

• notificationTapped event if user tapped the banner In-App message
• notificationActionTapped event if user tapped an action button of the Pop-up or Fullscreen message

Additional notes

• If you do not enable the feature or use older versions of the Mobile Messaging SDK without this feature support, the messages will be received, but will not be displayed. The Broadcast event MESSAGE_RECEIVED will be triggered.

• For In-App messages, the Message object in the field body contains text "In-App" for technical reasons, but this field won't be involved in the process of displaying an In-App message in the WebView.

• For In-App messages, the Message object in the field silent will always be set to "true".
