Network tracing lets you see network activities relating to the Google Mobile Ads SDK. This can be useful in debugging your Google Mobile Ads implementation.

A key reason to use network tracing instead of tools such as Charles Proxy is that it works with all versions of Android and devices running a supported version of Google play services. This isn't the case with proxying tools due to changes in trusted CAs and certificates in place since Android 7.0.

This guide explains how to enable network tracing for debugging purposes.

Enable tracing

To enable network tracing, enable developer options for your device. Then, launch the Google Settings app and select the Ads option:

Assuming you have developer options enabled and the feature is available, your screen would then look like this:

Select the Enable debug logging for ads option to bring up following dialog:

Tap OK and you're then presented with an advertising identifier that ends with 10ca1ad1abe1:

You are now able to see all the output from the network logging in logcat. To filter only Information-level Ads output to both the screen and a file, issue the following command:

adb logcat '*:S' Ads:I Ads-cont:I | tee logs.txt

Output

Standard platform-appropriate console logs are used to output the network logs.

Console log messages always begin with the string GMA Debug BEGIN, GMA Debug CONTENT, or GMA Debug FINISH, so you can search or filter on these strings. For each network log, the first log message is GMA Debug BEGIN, the last log message is GMA Debug FINISH, and the network log content begins with GMA Debug CONTENT. If content is too long to fit on a line, it is split among multiple lines, each line beginning with GMA Debug CONTENT.

Console output example

I/Ads     ( 4660): GMA Debug BEGIN
I/Ads     ( 4660): GMA Debug CONTENT {"timestamp":1510679993741,...}
I/Ads     ( 4660): GMA Debug FINISH
