Usage


react-native-advertising-id module provides a method getAdvertisingId() that returns a Promise.
This resolves in an object containing advertisingId as a string representing the GAID/AAID or IDFA depending on the platform, and isLimitAdTrackingEnabled indicating wether the user opted to restrict the usage of his AdvertisingId or not. (Note: If enabled on iOS, advertisingId will result in an empty string).
`javascript
import RNAdvertisingId from 'react-native-advertising-id';

RNAdvertisingId.getAdvertisingId()
.then(response => {
this.setState({
advertisingId: response.advertisingId,
isLimitAdTrackingEnabled: response.isLimitAdTrackingEnabled,
});
})
.catch(error => console.error(error));
