Usage of Google Advertising Id on Android WITHOUT integrating Google Mobile Ads












1















Getting the Google Advertising ID on Android requires to import the play-services-ads dependency.



Starting from 17.0.0, this dependency enforces that the application manifest contain a <meta-data> tag with key com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID. Missing tag leads to an application crash.



But I want to retrieve the Google Advertising ID for ads purposes that are not related to Google mobile Ads, and I do not have an application ID.



Does anyone know how to proceed now ?

          You can use play-services-ads-identifier instead of play-services-ads.



          implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-identifier:16.0.0'


          This will import only the Advertising ID classes, without Google Mobile Ads/AdMob.

And also on default emptyview android project does not use/mention this feature. I know it is required by TV's and such but why its not added by default? Why is this?

                    0 I'm trying to update an entry in my database (postgresql). I'm having a problem with updating the query: INSERT INTO prices (price, product_id) SELECT product_price, commn_id FROM products_temp as prod WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM prices od WHERE prod.commn_id = od.product_id) OR prod.product_price != ( SELECT price FROM prices as p WHERE p.product_id = prod.commn_id order by p.end desc LIMIT 1 ) Query works fine when i delete: OR prod.product_price != ( SELECT price FROM prices as p WHERE p.product_id = prod.commn_id order by p.end desc LIMIT 1 ) So it seems to me that it's looping through this operation. My question is, how can I fix it? sql postgresql
