Cannot Get Install Referrer
This issue has been posted multiple times, but still no fix can be found. The requirement is to get the campaign name of where the app was installed from. Even though the SDK reports it rightly to the google analytic servers, we cannot access it in any way from javascript. Similar issue : https://github.com/danwilson/google-analytics-plugin/issues/431
How do i emulate the INSTALL_REFERRER
adb shell am broadcast -a com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER -n com.XX.XX/com.google.android.gms.analytics.CampaignTrackingReceiver --es "referrer" "utm_source=testSource&utm_medium=testMedium&utm_term=testTerm&utm_content=testContent&utm_campaign=testCampaign1"AnalyticsReceiver
What do I do in js
window.ga.getVar('&cn', function(result){ console.log(result);})
VM201:1 null
undefined

I don't have a idea of why is not working; Checking the docs https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/android/v4/dispatch#background I can see that the only different with the campaing and Analytics config is that the WAKE_LOCK permissions is missing; but until now everything has been working, this could be the issue but I am not sure. This is a guess.
Are you sure that google analytics stores this key for retrieval? @victorsosa
What version of android are you using? I have noticed some issues that seem related to this with Android 8.
please test this again on version 1.8.5, the getVar method was changed for the browser platform
FWIW, it doesn't seem that tracker.setCampaignParamsOnNextHit() is being fired anywhere (or the ifs in the Tracker class are preventing it), so none of the campaign vars appear to be available. I was able to get it "working" by setting it manually with the values stored in com.google.android.gms.analytics.prefs SharedPreferences on load.
