In-App Message SDK Methods
OneSignal Mobile SDK Methods for In-App Messages
In-App Triggers
Triggers are events that you fire to show In-App Messages within your app. They are created within the OneSignal Dashboard.Every time you add or remove a trigger with the below methods, the OneSignal SDK will evaluate if an In-App Message should be shown based on the conditions set on it when it was created in the OneSignal Dashboard. Triggers are reset each time your app is closed, so make sure to set them again when starting your app if you need any of them to be persistent.
addTrigger
Method
addTrigger
MethodAdd a trigger. May show an In-App Message if its trigger conditions were met.
Parameter | Type | Description |

OneSignal.addTrigger("level", 5);
OneSignal.addTrigger("prompt_ios", withValue: "true");
[OneSignal addTrigger:@"product" withVaue:@"aggieTee"]
OneSignal.Default.SetTrigger("triggerKey", 123);
OneSignal.addTrigger("level", 5);
OneSignal.shared.addTrigger("level", 5);

In-App Message Lifecycle Handler
Requires iOS SDK version 3.7.0+
Requires Android SDK version 4.6.0+
The In-App Message Lifecycle Handler gives insight into the display lifecycle of In-App Messages. The Lifecycle Handler has four lifecycle methods that you can override in order to run code at particular times in this process.
setInAppMessageLifecycleHandler
Method
setInAppMessageLifecycleHandler
MethodSets an In-App Message lifecycle handler.
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
handler (Android)delegate (iOS) | OSInAppMessageLifecycleHandler | Instance of a class implementing this abstract class/protocol. |
The OSInAppMessageLifecycleHandler
Class/Protocol includes the following optional methods.
Method | Details |
---|---|
onWillDisplayInAppMessage(OSInAppMessage message) | This method will be called after the In-App Message content has been loaded, but before it has been displayed. If the content load fails, this method will not be called. |
onDidDisplayInAppMessage(OSInAppMessage message) | This method will be called after the In-App Message is displayed on screen. |
onWillDismissInAppMessage(OSInAppMessage message) | This method will be called when an an event to dismiss the In-App Message is fired. This method is also called for auto-dismissed In-App Messages. |
onDidDismissInAppMessage(OSInAppMessage message) | This method will be called when the In-App Message is completely dismissed from the screen. |
OneSignal.setInAppMessageLifecycleHandler(
