适用于Firebase和Google Analytics（分析）的google-services.json

Question

I want to use Google Analytics and Firebase both in my project. I have downloaded google-services.json file from the Firebase console settings but after using it, I am not able to support Google Analytics. It is showing me the error:

Error:(463, 49) error: cannot find symbol variable global_tracker

How to configure both in same .json file?

Following field is missing from .json file downloaded from firebase dashboard.

"services": {
    "analytics_service": {
      "status": 2,
      "analytics_property": {
        "tracking_id": "some_tracking_id"
      }
    },

Answer 1

When I downloaded google-services.json from Firebase console, analytics-service looked like this:

"analytics_service": {
      "status": 1
    },

However, since I have configured Google analytics as instructed here using global_tracker.xml file, it seems there is no need to have it configured in the google-services.json .

Answer 2

You should not use Google Analytics, Firebase already includes the analytics service that you could use better.

Just have in the module build.gradle :

compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:10.0.1'

Declare object

private FirebaseAnalytics mFirebaseAnalytics;

Instance in onCreate method

mFirebaseAnalytics = FirebaseAnalytics.getInstance(this);

So register events:

Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString("image_name", name);
params.putString("full_text", text);
mFirebaseAnalytics.logEvent("share_image", params);
