Mobile Platform as a Service:Quick start guide

The guide walks you through the steps to run the app for mobile analysis and view the reports generated by MAS.

Procedure

1. Log in to the mPaaS console and create an app.

2. Integrate the event SDK in client, and implement event tracking. For how to integrate the event SDK, see iOS event tracking or Android event tracking.

3. In the mPaaS console, from the navigation bar on the left, click Mobile Analysis Service to view the statistical data.

4. If the iOS app needs crash symbol parsing, you need to upload the corresponding dSYM symbol through the mPaaS console > Mobile Delivery Service > Release management page. Symbol reverse parsing is done in real time when the crash log is uploaded with minutes’ delay. If no symbol file is uploaded after the app is released, the original log content is displayed by default.

Start and run app

Run the app directly. In the app, when you click a button, switch pages or a crash occurs, an event log is generated and synchronized to the server that the client reports the log to. Then, you can view the analysis reports based on the event data from the Mobile Analysis page on the mPaaS console.
