BRANCH IOS MOBILE CHALLENGE

Thanks for your interest in Branch!

Specs

The challenge is to build a crash-resistent, and globally accesssible queue (+ extra) for our iOS SDK. Using Objective C, build a queue that holds ServerRequest custom objects (see below for the spec on that).

Some specs:

  1. The same instance of the queue should be accessible anywhere in the app without passing it as a parameter. For example, the state of the queue to persist throughout the entire life cycle of the application, and be accessible from any View Controller. That means, in View Controller 1, a user could insert a ServerRequest object into the queue. Then in View Controller 2, the user could consume that same ServerRequest object.

BRANCH ANDROID MOBILE CHALLENGE

Thanks for your interest in Branch!

Specs

The challenge is to build a crash-resistent, and globally accessible queue (+ extra) for our Android SDK. Using Java, build a queue that holds String objects

Some specs:

  1. The same instance of the queue should be accessible anywhere in the app without passing it as a parameter. For example, the state of the queue to persist throughout the entire life cycle of the application, and be accessible from any Activity. That means, in Activity 1, a user could insert a String object into the queue. Then in Activity 2, the user could consume that same String object.

Dispatcher issue
hey alex
you there by any chance?
is it possible that you dont send the "identity" field anymore when you call the webhook if i've opened the app once through a deep link?
i just double checked that i'm calling identityUser
and the payloads i'm receiving from you on the webhook endpoint are as follows:
reqBody: { [-]
event: Viewed JobImpression
metadata: { [-]
ip: 38.122.182.107
jobId: I1084382446
