This example shows how to use the 51Degrees Cloud service to lookup the details of a device based on a given 'native model name'. Native model name is a string of characters that are returned from a query to the device's OS. There are different mechanisms to get native model names for Android devices and iOS devices
This example is available in full on GitHub.
To run this example, you will need to create a resource key. The resource key is used as shorthand to store the particular set of properties you are interested in as well as any associated license keys that entitle you to increased request limits and/or paid-for properties.
You can create a resource key using the 51Degrees Configurator.
