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.

FacebookUser(
String facebookId,
String firstName,
String lastName,
String email,
String bio,
String cityName,
// Gender is a Braze enum.
// Specify either Gender.MALE or Gender.FEMALE.
Gender gender,
Integer numberOfFriends,
// Names of pages the user likes.
Collection<String> likes,
// mm/dd/yyyy format.
String birthday
)
TwitterUser(
Integer twitterUserId,
String twitterHandle,
String name,
String description,
Integer followerCount,
Integer followingCount,
Integer tweetCount,
String profileImageUrl
)
To pass data retrieved from social networks to Braze, you’ll create a new FacebookUser or TwitterUser and then pass them to the method AppboyUser.setFacebookData()/AppboyUser.setTwitterData(). For example:

FacebookUser facebookUser = new FacebookUser("100000", "FirstName", "LastName", "email@email.com", "bio", "City", Gender.MALE, 3, ,"04/13/1990");
AppboyUser.setFacebookData(facebookUser);
String imageUrl = "https://si0.twimg.com/profile_images/000/0000.jpeg";
TwitterUser twitterUser = new TwitterUser(100000, "handle", "Name", "description", 100, 50, 150, imageUrl);
AppboyUser.setTwitterData(twitterUser);
