This page instructs how to set up Product Analytics data capture in combination with Experience Analytics.

1. Configure and start the SDK with `CSQ.start()`.

   * Product Analytics

     **AppDelegate.swift**

     ```swift
     import UIKit
     import ContentsquareSDK


     @UIApplicationMain
     class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
       var window: UIWindow?


       func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
         // ...


         CSQ.start(
           environmentID: "YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID"
         )
       }
     }
     ```

     Find your environment ID

     `YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID` is either provided to you by Contentsquare or you can find it in **Account** > **Manage** > **Projects** > \[Select your project] > **Environments** within the [Product Analytics web app ↗](https://heapanalytics.com/app/).

   * CSQ Experience Platform (Early Access)

     **AppDelegate.swift**

     ```swift
     import UIKit
     import ContentsquareSDK


     @UIApplicationMain
     class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
       var window: UIWindow?


       func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
         // ...


         CSQ.start(
           dataSourceID: "YOUR_DATASOURCE_ID"
         )
       }
     }
     ```

     Find your data source ID

     `YOUR_DATASOURCE_ID` is either provided to you by Contentsquare or you can find it in **Definitions** > **Data sources** > \[Expand your mobile data source] > \[Copy the App ID in step 1] within the [CSQ Experience Platform web app ↗](https://app.contentsquare.com/).

2. Enable autocapture with `.enableNativeAutocapture = true`.

   * Product Analytics

     **AppDelegate.swift**

     ```swift
     import UIKit
     import ContentsquareSDK


     @UIApplicationMain
     class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
       var window: UIWindow?


       func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
         // ...


         CSQ.start(
           environmentID: "YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID",
           options: [
             .enableNativeAutocapture: true
           ]
         )
       }
     }
     ```

   * CSQ Experience Platform (Early Access)

     **AppDelegate.swift**

     ```swift
     import UIKit
     import ContentsquareSDK


     @UIApplicationMain
     class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
       var window: UIWindow?


       func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
         // ...


         CSQ.start(
           dataSourceID: "YOUR_DATASOURCE_ID",
           options: [
             .enableNativeAutocapture: true
           ]
         )
       }
     }
     ```

3. (Optional) If your Product Analytics environment is hosted in the EU, set the `baseURL` option to `"https://mh.ba.contentsquare.net"`.

   * Product Analytics

     ```swift
     CSQ.start(
       environmentID: "YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID",
       options: [
         .baseURL: "https://mh.ba.contentsquare.net"
       ]
     )
     ```

   * CSQ Experience Platform (Early Access)

     ```swift
     CSQ.start(
       dataSourceID: "YOUR_DATASOURCE_ID",
       options: [
         .baseURL: "https://mh.ba.contentsquare.net"
       ]
     )
     ```

4. Add `.disablePageviewAutocapture = true`.

   * Product Analytics

     **AppDelegate.swift**

     ```swift
     import UIKit
     import ContentsquareSDK


     @UIApplicationMain
     class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
     var window: UIWindow?


       func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
         // ...


         CSQ.start(
           environmentID: "YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID",
           options: [
             .enableNativeAutocapture: true,
             .disablePageviewAutocapture: true
           ]
         )
       }
     }
     ```

   * CSQ Experience Platform (Early Access)

     **AppDelegate.swift**

     ```swift
     import UIKit
     import ContentsquareSDK


     @UIApplicationMain
     class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
     var window: UIWindow?


       func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
         // ...


         CSQ.start(
           dataSourceID: "YOUR_DATASOURCE_ID",
           options: [
             .enableNativeAutocapture: true,
             .disablePageviewAutocapture: true
           ]
         )
       }
     }
     ```
