Facebook: How to separate debug and prod mode events?

Question

I'm using the Facebook SDK to track ads mobile install and followed this tutorial: mobile ads install

So far, events in DashBoard / Insight are not separated for debug / prod mode.

Do I have to create 2 appIDs to separate the debug and prod events in DashBoard/Insight ?

Answer 1

My guess is to you use the DEBUG preprocessor macro (or create a new one if needed), to set the correct Facebook's appId for you build. You can use the method FBSettings setDefaultAppID: from Facebook SDK to reach this, without hardcode the appId in the Info.plist.

Let me write a simple example:

// 1 - Set the app id on compile time, based in macro you choosed
#if DEBUG
  kFacebookAppID = @"your app id for debug";
#else
  kFacebookAppID = @"your app id for production";
#endif


// After then, you can set the id in your app delegate initialization
[FBSettings setDefaultAppID:kFacebookAppID];

I hope this help you.
