Version: Config V2

Unreal Engine SDK Reference

ConfigCat Unreal SDK on GitHub

Getting Started

1. Installing the ConfigCat plugin to your project

Via Unreal Marketplace

Via GitHub

Prequesities to building manually:

you are working in a C++ project
you've completed the Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code setup

To download:

Create a Plugins folder in the root folder of your project (where the .uproject file is located).
Head to the download the latest ConfigCat.zip archive or any of the previous versions from: Releases
Unzip the content inside the Plugins folder.

Note: if you are using a locally built plugin, you will need to rebuild from source manually.

2. Enable the ConfigCat plugin in your project

Navigate to Edit -> Plugins and perform the following steps:

Find the ConfigCat plugin and tick the enable checkbox.
Press Restart to load up the editor.

3. Set up the ConfigCat settings with your SDK Key

You can configure all ConfigCat related settings inside the Edit -> Project Settings -> Feature Flags -> ConfigCat.

Properties	Description
`Sdk Key`	SDK Key to access your feature flags and configurations. Get it from ConfigCat Dashboard.
`Base Url`	Optional, sets the CDN base url (forward proxy, dedicated subscription) from where the sdk will download the config JSON.
`Data Governance`	Optional, defaults to `Global`. Describes the location of your feature flag and setting data within the ConfigCat CDN. This parameter needs to be in sync with your Data Governance preferences. More about Data Governance. Available options: `Global`, `EuOnly`.
`Connect Timeout`	Optional, defaults to `8000ms`. Sets the amount of milliseconds to wait for the server to make the initial connection (i.e. completing the TCP connection handshake). `0` means it never times out during transfer
`Read Timeout`	Optional, defaults to `5000ms`. Sets the amount of milliseconds to wait for the server to respond before giving up. `0` means it never times out during transfer.
`Polling Mode`	Optional, sets the polling mode for the client. More about polling modes.
`Auto Poll Interval`	For PollingMode == Custom, sets at least how often this policy should fetch the latest config JSON and refresh the cache.
`Maximum Inititial Wait Time`	For PollingMode == Custom, sets the maximum waiting time between initialization and the first config acquisition in seconds.
`Cache Refresh Interval`	For PollingMode == LazyLoad, sets how long the cache will store its value before fetching the latest from the network again.
`Proxies`	Optional, sets proxy addresses. e.g. { "https": "your_proxy_ip:your_proxy_port" } on each http request
`Proxy Authentications`	Optional, sets proxy authentication on each http request.
`Start Offline`	Optional, sets the SDK ot be initialized in offline mode.

4. Get your setting value

Blueprints
C++

Add the ConfigCat Dependency to your .Build.cs file:

PrivateDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string[]
{
  "ConfigCat"
});

Access feature flags:

#include "ConfigCatSubsystem.h"

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);
bool bIsMyAwesomeFeatureEnabled = ConfigCat->GetBoolValue(TEXT("isMyAwesomeFeatureEnabled"), false);
SetMyAwesomeFeatureEnabled(bIsMyAwesomeFeatureEnabled);

Anatomy of `GetValue`

Parameters	Description
`Key`	REQUIRED. The key of a specific setting or feature flag. Set on ConfigCat Dashboard for each setting.
`Default Value`	REQUIRED. This value will be returned in case of an error.
`User`	Optional, User Object. Essential when using Targeting. Read more about Targeting.

Blueprints
C++

Access value depending on type:

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);

bool bMyFirstFeatureFlag = ConfigCat->GetBoolValue(TEXT("myFirstFeatureFlag"), false);
int MySecondFeatureFlag = ConfigCat->GetIntValue(TEXT("mySecondFeatureFlag"), 0);
double MyThirdFeatureFlag = ConfigCat->GetDoubleValue(TEXT("myThirdFeatureFlag"), 0.0);
FString MyFourthFeatureFlag = ConfigCat->GetStringValue(TEXT("myForthFeatureFlag"), TEXT(""));

Access value depending on type targeting an user:

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);

auto User = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#USER-IDENTIFIER#"));
FString TargetValue = ConfigCat->GetStringValue(TEXT("targetValue"), TEXT(""), User);

Anatomy of `GetValueDetails()`

GetValueDetails() is similar to GetValue() but instead of returning the evaluated value only, it gives more detailed information about the evaluation result.

Parameters	Description
`Key`	REQUIRED. The key of a specific setting or feature flag. Set on ConfigCat Dashboard for each setting.
`Default Value`	REQUIRED. This value will be returned in case of an error.
`User`	Optional, User Object. Essential when using Targeting. Read more about Targeting.

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);

auto User = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#USER-IDENTIFIER#"));
auto Details = ConfigCat->GetStringValueDetails(TEXT("myFeatureFlag"),  TEXT(""), User);

The Details result contains the following information:

Field	Description
`Value`	The evaluated value of the feature flag or setting.
`Key`	The key of the evaluated feature flag or setting.
`Is Default Value`	True when the default value passed to `getValueDetails()` is returned due to an error.
`Error`	In case of an error, this field contains the error message.
`User`	The User Object that was used for evaluation.
`Matched Evaluation Percentage Rule`	If the evaluation was based on a percentage rule, this field contains that specific rule.
`Matched Evaluation Rule`	If the evaluation was based on a Targeting Rule, this field contains that specific rule.
`FetchTime`	The last download time of the current config.

User Object

The User Object is essential if you'd like to use ConfigCat's Targeting feature.

Blueprints
C++

auto User = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#UNIQUE-USER-IDENTIFIER#"));

Customized User Object creation

Argument	Description
`Id`	REQUIRED. Unique identifier of a user in your application. Can be any value, even an email address.
`Email`	Optional parameter for easier Targeting Rule definitions.
`Country`	Optional parameter for easier Targeting Rule definitions.
`Custom`	Optional dictionary for custom attributes of a user for advanced Targeting Rule definitions. e.g. User role, Subscription type.

Blueprints
C++

TMap<FString, FString> Attributes;
Attributes.Emplace(TEXT("SubscriptionType"), TEXT("Pro"));
Attributes.Emplace(TEXT("UserRole"), TEXT("Admin"));
auto User = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#UNIQUE-USER-IDENTIFIER#"), TEXT("[email protected]"), 
  TEXT("United Kingdom"), Attributes);

Default user

There's an option to set a default User Object that will be used at feature flag and setting evaluation. It can be useful when your application has a single user only, or rarely switches users.

You can set the default User Object with the setDefaultUser() method of the ConfigCat client.

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);
auto User = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#UNIQUE-USER-IDENTIFIER#"));
ConfigCat->SetDefaultUser(User);

Whenever the GetValue(), GetValueDetails(), GetAllValues(), or GetAllValueDetails() methods are called without an explicit user parameter, the SDK will automatically use the default user as a User Object.

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);
auto User = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#UNIQUE-USER-IDENTIFIER#"));
ConfigCat->SetDefaultUser(User);

// The default user will be used at the evaluation process.
bool bMySetting = ConfigCat->GetBoolValue(TEXT("keyOfMySetting"), false);

When the user parameter is specified on the requesting method, it takes precedence over the default user.

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);
auto User = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#UNIQUE-USER-IDENTIFIER#"));
ConfigCat->SetDefaultUser(User);

auto OtherUser = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#OTHER-UNIQUE-USER-IDENTIFIER#"));

// OtherUser will be used at the evaluation process.
bool bMySetting = ConfigCat->GetBoolValue(TEXT("keyOfMySetting"), false, OtherUser);

For deleting the default user, you can do the following:

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);
ConfigCat->ClearDefaultUser();

Polling Modes

The ConfigCat SDK supports 3 different polling mechanisms to acquire the setting values from ConfigCat. After latest setting values are downloaded, they are stored in the internal cache, then all GetValue() calls are served from there. With the following polling modes, you can customize the SDK to best fit to your application's lifecycle.
More about polling modes.

Auto polling (default)

The ConfigCat SDK downloads the latest values and stores them automatically every 60 seconds.

Available options:

Option Parameter	Description	Default
`Auto Poll Interval`	Polling interval.	60
`Max Inititial Wait Time`	Maximum waiting time between the client initialization and the first config acquisition in seconds.	5

Lazy Loading

When calling getValue(), the ConfigCat SDK downloads the latest setting values if they are not present or expired in the cache. In this case getValue() will return the setting value after the cache is updated.

Available options:

Parameter	Description	Default
`Cache Refresh Interval`	Cache TTL.	60

Manual Polling

Manual polling gives you full control over when the config JSON (with the setting values) is downloaded. ConfigCat SDK will not update them automatically. Calling ForceRefresh() is your application's responsibility.

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);
ConfigCat->ForceRefresh();

GetValue() returns DefaultValue if the cache is empty. Call ForceRefresh() to update the cache.

Delegates

With the following delegates you can subscribe to particular events fired by the SDK:

OnClientReady: This event is sent when the SDK reaches the ready state. If the SDK is initialized with lazy load or manual polling, it's considered ready right after instantiation. If it's using auto polling, the ready state is reached when the SDK has a valid config JSON loaded into memory either from cache or from HTTP. If the config couldn't be loaded neither from cache nor from HTTP the onClientReady event fires when the auto polling's maxInitWaitTimeInSeconds is reached.
OnConfigChanged: This event is sent when the SDK loads a valid config JSON into memory from cache, and each subsequent time when the loaded config JSON changes via HTTP.
OnFlagEvaluated: This event is sent each time when the SDK evaluates a feature flag or setting. The event sends the same evaluation details that you would get from getValueDetails().
OnError: This event is sent when an error occurs within the ConfigCat SDK.

You can subscribe to these events either on SDK initialization:

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);
    
ConfigCat->OnClientReady.AddWeakLambda(this, [](){ /* OnClientReady callback */ });
ConfigCat->OnConfigChanged.AddWeakLambda(this, [](UConfigCatSettingsWrapper* Config){ /* OnConfigChanged callback */ });
ConfigCat->OnFlagEvaluated.AddWeakLambda(this, [](UConfigCatEvaluationWrapper* Details){ /* OnFlagEvaluated callback */ });
ConfigCat->OnError.AddWeakLambda(this, [](const FString& Error, const FString& Exception){ /* OnError callback */ });

Online / Offline mode

In cases when you'd want to prevent the SDK from making HTTP calls, you can put it in offline mode with SetOffline.

In offline mode, the SDK won't initiate HTTP requests and will work only from its cache.

To put the SDK back in online mode, you can use SetOnline;

With IsOffline you can check whether the SDK is in offline mode.

C++

Unreal Engine Blueprint Offline Functionality

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);

ConfigCat->SetOffline();
ConfigCat->SetOnline();
bool bIsOffline = ConfigCat->IsOffline();

Flag Overrides

With flag overrides you can overwrite the feature flags & settings downloaded from the ConfigCat CDN with local values. Moreover, you can specify how the overrides should apply over the downloaded values. The following 3 behaviours are supported:

Local only (OverrideBehaviour::LocalOnly): When evaluating values, the SDK will not use feature flags & settings from the ConfigCat CDN, but it will use all feature flags & settings that are loaded from local-override sources.
Local over remote (OverrideBehaviour::LocalOverRemote): When evaluating values, the SDK will use all feature flags & settings that are downloaded from the ConfigCat CDN, plus all feature flags & settings that are loaded from local-override sources. If a feature flag or a setting is defined both in the downloaded and the local-override source then the local-override version will take precedence.
Remote over local (OverrideBehaviour::RemoteOverLocal): When evaluating values, the SDK will use all feature flags & settings that are downloaded from the ConfigCat CDN, plus all feature flags & settings that are loaded from local-override sources. If a feature flag or a setting is defined both in the downloaded and the local-override source then the downloaded version will take precedence.

You can set up the SDK to load your feature flag & setting overrides from a file or a map.

JSON File

The SDK can be set up to load your feature flag & setting overrides from a file.

File

If specified the SDK will load the JSON data %PROJECT_ROOT/Content/ConfigCat/flags.json file. This file needs to be created manually in the specified folder to ensure it gets packaged in the final executable.

Note: This file needs to be created in your file explorer and cannot be done within Unreal.

JSON File Structure

The SDK supports 2 types of JSON structures to describe feature flags & settings.

1. Simple (key-value) structure

{
  "flags": {
    "enabledFeature": true,
    "disabledFeature": false,
    "intSetting": 5,
    "doubleSetting": 3.14,
    "stringSetting": "test"
  }
}

2. Complex (full-featured) structure

This is the same format that the SDK downloads from the ConfigCat CDN. It allows the usage of all features that are available on the ConfigCat Dashboard.

You can download your current config JSON from ConfigCat's CDN and use it as a baseline.

A convenient way to get the config JSON for a specific SDK Key is to install the ConfigCat CLI tool and execute the following command:

configcat config-json get -f v6 -p {YOUR-SDK-KEY} > config.json

(Depending on your Data Governance settings, you may need to add the --eu switch.)

Alternatively, you can download the config JSON manually, based on your Data Governance settings:

GLOBAL: https://cdn-global.configcat.com/configuration-files/{YOUR-SDK-KEY}/config_v6.json
EU: https://cdn-eu.configcat.com/configuration-files/{YOUR-SDK-KEY}/config_v6.json

}

For a more comprehensive specification of the config JSON v6 format, you may refer to this JSON schema document.

Map

You can set up the SDK to load your feature flag & setting overrides from a map.

Coming soon: Support for Flag overrides via Map #8

info

The Unreal Engine SDK doesn't support programmatically setting a flag map override currently.

`GetAllKeys()`

You can query the keys of each feature flag and setting with the getAllKeys() method.

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);

TArray<FString> Keys = ConfigCat->GetAllKeys();

`GetAllValues()`

Evaluates and returns the values of all feature flags and settings. Passing a User Object is optional.

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);
TMap<FString, UConfigCatValueWrapper*> SettingValues = ConfigCat->GetAllValues();

auto User = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#UNIQUE-USER-IDENTIFIER#"));
TMap<FString, UConfigCatValueWrapper*> SettingValuesTargeting = ConfigCat->GetAllValues(User);

`GetAllValueDetails`

Evaluates and returns the detailed values of all feature flags and settings. Passing a User Object is optional.

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);
auto User = UConfigCatUserWrapper::CreateUser(TEXT("#UNIQUE-USER-IDENTIFIER#"));

TArray<UConfigCatEvaluationWrapper*> AllValueDetails = ConfigCat->GetAllValueDetails(User);

Custom Cache

Coming soon: Support for Custom Cache #9

info

The Unreal Engine SDK doesn't support custom cache implementations currently.

Force refresh

Call the forceRefresh() method on the client to download the latest config JSON and update the cache.

Blueprints
C++

UConfigCatSubsystem* ConfigCat = UConfigCatSubsystem::Get(this);

ConfigCat->ForceRefresh();

Using ConfigCat behind a proxy

info

The Unreal Engine HTTP module doesn't support running behinde a proxy.

Changing the default HTTP timeout

Set the maximum wait time for a ConfigCat HTTP response by changing the ConnectTimeoutMs or ReadTimeoutMs in the ConfigCat ProjectSettings. The default ConnectTimeoutMs is 8 seconds. The default ReadTimeoutMs is 5 seconds.

Logging

All ConfigCat logs are inside the LogConfigCat category. By default the verbosity is set to Log, but it can be changed to any Verbosity Level.

The verbosity can be changed:

Via Command line arguments:

Run the executable with -LogCmds="LogConfigCat VerbosityLevel". For example: -LogCmds="LogConfigCat Warning" to only show warnings and above.

Via DefaultEngine.ini:

In the [Core.Log] category add LogConfigCat=VerbosityLevel inside the DefaultEngine.ini. For example:

[Core.Log]
LogConfigCat=Warning ;to only show warnings and above

Note: Since the Unreal Engine SDK is a wrapper of the CPP SDK, all logs coming from the CPP SDK are tagged wtih [CPP-SDK].

Info level logging helps to inspect how a feature flag was evaluated:

[Info]: Evaluating getValue(isPOCFeatureEnabled)
User object: {
    "Email": "[email protected]",
    "Identifier": "435170f4-8a8b-4b67-a723-505ac7cdea92",
}
Evaluating rule: [Email:[email protected]] [CONTAINS] [@something.com] => no match
Evaluating rule: [Email:[email protected]] [CONTAINS] [@example.com] => match, returning: true

Sensitive information handling

The frontend/mobile SDKs are running in your users' browsers/devices. The SDK is downloading a config JSON file from ConfigCat's CDN servers. The URL path for this config JSON file contains your SDK key, so the SDK key and the content of your config JSON file (feature flag keys, feature flag values, Targeting Rules, % rules) can be visible to your users. In ConfigCat, all SDK keys are read-only. They only allow downloading your config JSON files, but nobody can make any changes with them in your ConfigCat account.

If you do not want to expose the SDK key or the content of the config JSON file, we recommend using the SDK in your backend components only. You can always create a backend endpoint using the ConfigCat SDK that can evaluate feature flags for a specific user, and call that backend endpoint from your frontend/mobile applications.

Also, we recommend using confidential targeting comparators in the Targeting Rules of those feature flags that are used in the frontend/mobile SDKs.
