Get Settings File

Each VWO SDK client corresponds to the settings file representing the current state of the campaign settings, that is, a list of FullStack running campaign settings. See Review core concepts for more information.

Description

VWO SDK is a helper for executing various FullStack capabilities. It requires a certain set of settings for its work. These settings are related to your FullStack campaigns you create or update in the VWO application.
So, before instantiating the VWO SDK, settings file needs to be fetched.

The method accepts two parameters:

  • accountId - account-id associated with your VWO account.
