Social Data Tracking
Similar to the Braze iOS SDK, the Braze Android SDK does not automatically collect Facebook and Twitter data. However, it’s possible to add social media data to a Braze user’s profile from the Android SDK as well:
- Obtain social media data within your app via the Facebook SDK and Twitter APIs.
- Initialize Facebook and Twitter User objects with social media data and pass them to Braze.

To pass data retrieved from social networks to Braze, you’ll create a new FacebookUser or TwitterUser and then pass them to the method BrazeUser.setFacebookData()/BrazeUser.setTwitterData(). For example:

| FacebookUser facebookUser = new FacebookUser("100000", "FirstName", "LastName", "email@email.com", "bio", "City", Gender.MALE, 3, Arrays.asList(new String[]{ "like" }), "04/13/1990");
Braze.getInstance(context).getCurrentUser().setFacebookData(facebookUser);
TwitterUser twitterUser = new TwitterUser(100000, "handle", "Name", "description", 100, 50, 150, "image_url");
Braze.getInstance(context).getCurrentUser().setTwitterData(twitterUser);
