'AppLovin' does not contain a definition for 'Initialize'

[Alex]

I added  AppLovin Unity Mediation Plugin to my unity project.
Based on integration info here:https://developers.google.com/admob/unity/mediation/applovin#optional_steps
"Adding a call to AppLovin.Initialize() to your launch activity provides AppLovin the ability to track events as soon as the app starts." - but if I am adding AppLovin.Initialize(); to my script it gives me uch error: 'AppLovin' does not contain a definition for 'Initialize'.

How should I add initialization of Applovin mediation?

Hello,

I am using 8.0.3, but this issue happens for many versions.

I followed the instructions. 

No need to make test user in order to see the error in the script.

It just give me option to use AppLovin.SetHasUserConsent or AppLovin.SetDoNotSell. No option to use AppLovin.Initialize()!

Hi,

Thank you for getting back to us.

Please note that you shouldn't need to initialize the AppLovin SDK by yourselves, as both the adapter and the SDK will be initialized when the GMA SDK initializes. No additional steps are required for initialization.

As mentioned in Step 4: Implement privacy settings on AppLovin SDK, AppLovin supports reading the consent string from shared preferences and setting the consent status accordingly. Therefore, if publishers are already using a CMP SDK to set the consent string, they don't need to call setHasUserConsent() to pass the consent to the AppLovin SDK.

If the issue still persists, kindly provide the below information via reply to author option for further investigation:

• app ID
• ad unit ID
• Unity Plugin version
• Unity Editor version

Can't add AppLovin.Initialize()! No such method in the SDK.

Hi,

Please note that from 8.0.2  following methods are removed from the AppLovin class:

• Initialize()
• SetIsAgeRestrictedUser(bool)

[Alex]

Thank you for informing me.

Probably you should change “Optional steps” in tutorial.
