How the App Key's HTTPS setting affects your app?

You can see the HTTPS setting for your App Key in the Console > App Key page.

About the HTTPS setting

This setting controls if the SDK uses HTTPS for the following network requests:

  • File uploads and downloads
  • Log uploads and downloads
  • Statistics uploads
  • Any other internal SDK communication over HTTP

Default state

The HTTPS setting is on by default for all new App Keys in both Development and Production environments.

  • Impact on Android

If your app targets Android versions below 6.0, you must turn this setting off. These older versions use HTTP by default.

  • Impact on iOS

If your app supports iOS, you must turn this setting on.

  • Impact on Web

This setting does not affect the Web SDK.
