Tarjetas de contenido

Prerequisites

Before you can use Braze Content Cards, you’ll need to integrate the Braze Android SDK into your app. However, no additional setup is required.

Google fragments

In Android, the Content Cards feed is implemented as a fragment available in the Braze Android UI project. The ContentCardsFragment class will automatically refresh and display the contents of the Content Cards and log usage analytics. The cards that can appear in a user’s ContentCards are created on the Braze dashboard.

To learn how to add a fragment to an activity, see Google’s fragments documentation.

Card types and properties

The Content Cards data model is available in the Android SDK and offers the following unique Content Card types. Each type shares a base model, which allows them to inherit common properties from the base model, in addition to having their own unique properties. For full reference documentation, see com.braze.models.cards.
