CobrowseIO SDK - Remote Screenshare Service

With Cobrowse.io's screen sharing technology for mobile apps you can see exactly what your customer sees on their mobile device, and provide realtime annotations to help solve customer support queries quickly.

Try it out

You can try the Cobrowse.io service for free and without signing up for an account. Just follow the installation instructions below, then head to https://cobrowse.io/trial to use the trial dashboard.

Installation

npm install --save cobrowse-sdk-react-native
react-native link

Note: For iOS you need to be using Pods to manage dependencies for react-native link to work out of the box. If you're not using pods you'll need to manually add the Frameworks for CobrowseIO, SocketIO (and it's dependencies) to your Xcode project.

Usage from Javascript

We've provided a view that will do all the session creation and management for you. All you need to do is include this somewhere in your react native view hierarchy. It's not a requirement to use this UI, continue reading to learn about creating your own interface (it's easy!).

import { CobrowseView } from 'cobrowse-sdk-react-native';

export default class App extends Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <View>
                <CobrowseView license='trial' />
            </View>
        );
    }
}

API

It's likely you'll want to customise the UI for starting or managing an active session. We've provided an API as a part of this SDK that allows you to bypass the default UI we provide and create your own:

Session Management

CobrowseIO.createSession(callback)

CobrowseIO.loadSession(code, callback)

CobrowseIO.currentSession(callback)

CobrowseIO.activateSession(callback)

CobrowseIO.endSession(callback)

CobrowseIO.addListener(event, callback)

Properties

CobrowseIO.license

Constants

CobrowseIO.SESSION_UPDATED

CobrowseIO.SESSION_ENDED

See the CobrowseView code for an example of how to use these APIs.

Add your license key

Once you've signed up for a free account at cobrowse.io, you'll be able to find your license key at https://cobrowse.io/dashboard/settings. Add this to your SDK setup:

CobrowseIO.license = "<your license key here>";

Alternatively, you can pass this as the license prop to the CobrowseView if you're using the default UI.

Requirements

• iOS 9.0, Android API 21 or above.
