Add the following lines to your code which will register this device with the Cobrowse servers so you can connect to it. You could choose to do this on app startup, or when your users visits a support page in your application, or any other time.
Swift
Objective-C
1
import CobrowseIO
2
...

​

CobrowseIO.instance().license = "put your license key here"
5
CobrowseIO.instance().start()
Copied!

@import CobrowseIO;
2
...

​

CobrowseIO.instance.license = @"put your license key here";
5
[CobrowseIO.instance start];

Registering on startup
If you would like your devices to register as soon as your app starts, we recommend doing this in your app delegate
application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method. For example:Swift
Objective-C
1
import CobrowseIO
2
​
3
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool
4
{
5
CobrowseIO.instance().license = "put your license key here"
6
CobrowseIO.instance().start()
7
return true
8
}
Copied!
1
@import CobrowseIO;
2
​
3
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication*) application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary*) launchOptions
4
{
5
CobrowseIO.instance.license = @"put your license key here";
6
[CobrowseIO.instance start];
7
return YES;
8
}
Copied!
