Initiate User

To start using the LikeMinds Feed and enable personalized experiences for your users, you need to initiate them within the system. This process associates a user in your application with a user in the LikeMinds Feed, allowing for seamless integration and personalized recommendations.

Steps to initiate User

1. Create a InitiateUserRequest object using InitiateUserRequest.Builder class by passing all the required parameters.
2. Call initiateUser() function using the instance of LMFeedClient.
3. Process the response (LMResponse<InitiateUserResponse>) as per your requirement.

CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.IO).launch {
    // object of InitiateUserRequest
    val initiateUserRequest = InitiateUserRequest.Builder()
                .apiKey("ENTER API KEY") // api key of the community
                .deviceId("ENTER DEVICE ID") // unique id of the device
                .uuid("ENTER UUID") // client side user unique Id
                .userName("ENTER USER NAME") // name of the user
                .isGuest(false) // user is a guest or not
                .build()
    // get response (LMResponse<InitiateUserResponse>)
    val response = LMFeedClient.getInstance().initiateUser(initiateUserRequest)
    if (response.success) {
        // your function to process the response data
        processInitiateUserResponse(response.data)
    } else {
        // your function to process error message
        processError(response.errorMessage)
    }
}
