What's New in the Latest Facebook SDK?

After you integrate Facebook SDK, certain App Events are automatically logged and collected for Events Manager, unless you disable Automatic App Event Logging. You may change this in your app code or through a toggle under App Events in the App Dashboard or Events Manager. Please note in the event of conflicting values between the AutoLogAppEventsEnabled flag and the toggle, we will honor the value in the ‘Automatic event logging for the Facebook SDK’ toggle. For details about what information is collected and how to disable Automatic App Event Logging, see Automatic App Event Logging.

How to Upgrade?

Android

If your app integrates with the Facebook SDK using dynamic versioning in Maven, then you only need to rebuild your project. Upgrading the SDK requires a clean rebuild of your app. Gradle resolves any dependencies and downloads the latest SDK for your app.
If your app integrates with the Facebook SDK in Maven but does not use dynamic versioning, upgrade now by modifying your build.gradle file with the following code and rebuild your project.
```
implementation 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:[8,9)'
```
If your app integrates with the SDK manually, please switch to Maven and dynamic versioning by following our Getting Started Guide.

iOS

If your app integrates with the Facebook SDK using CocoaPods, add the following code to your Podfile.

pod 'FacebookSDK'
pod 'FacebookSDK/LoginKit'
pod 'FacebookSDK/ShareKit'
pod 'FacebookSDK/PlacesKit'

pod 'FBSDKMessengerShareKit'

Then run pod update.

If your app integrates with the Facebook SDK manually, please switch to CocoaPods by following our Getting Started Guide
