Parse Installation about parse-swift HOT 6 CLOSED

Can you share your Installation ParseObject and any ParseObjects it embeds?

Also, is there a reason you are attempting to save your installation every time right after you initialize the SDK?

from parse-swift.

I thought the Installation needs to happen every time, how do I make sure it only happens a single time?
I also want to mention that the first time it does the installation, it returns no errors.
So it's probably because I try to do it every launch.

But where do I put the installation code then? Is this something we need to check ourselves if it already did the installation?

You are not required to save the installation. It's created automatically and saved to your Keychain in ParseSwift.initialize:

There are only two times I can think of needing to save it to the Cloud: 1) is when you need it for push notifications. In that case, the only save that's needed occurs in the AppDelegate or equivalent (the OS will call this method whenever deviceToken changes):

func application(_ application: UIApplication,
                     didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken deviceToken: Data) {
        DispatchQueue.main.async {
            guard var currentInstallation = Installation.current else {
                return
            }
            currentInstallation.setDeviceToken(deviceToken)
            currentInstallation.channels = ["global"]
            currentInstallation.save { _ in }
        }
    }

2. If you're making changes to fields in Installation or using Installation for something else.

The error on your update of Installation might be linked to something with how back4app sends dates. I recommend keeping an eye on this post https://community.parseplatform.org/t/error-decoding-parse-server-response/1446/14

Closing due to the question being answered and inactivity. Feel free to reopen if needed.

@novemTeam I think the Installation problems you were having should be fixed in version 1.3.0. In this version you no longer need to wrap installation calls in dispatch closures. Let us know if it resolves the issues you had.

You can see the linked PRs and issues for details.
