Enable Game Service

• Use Cocos Creator to open the project that needs to be connected to Game Service.

• Click on Panel -> Service in the menu bar to open the Service panel, select Game Service service to go to the service detail page, and then click on the Enable button in the top right to enable the service.

  

• Refer to the Configuring App Information in AppGallery Connect documentation to complete developer registration, app creation, enable Huawei Analysis Service parameter configuration, and enable the API.

The installation source name can contain up to 128 characters, including letters, digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and spaces. The name cannot start or end with a space if it contains only digits.

Configs HUAWEI Config File

Most of HUAWEI Services need the agconnect-services.json configuration file. If there are operations such as newly opened services, please update the file in time.

• Sign in to AppGallery Connect find your project from the project list and select the app on the project card.

• On the Project Setting page, click the configuration file agconnect-services.json to download it. The agconnect-services.json file must be copied manually to the settings directory of the project directory after downloading or updating.

  

• For Creator v2.4.3 and above, if you want to publish to the HUAWEI AppGallery Connect, you can select the downloaded or updated configuration file directly in the Build panel, no need to copy it manually.

  

Sample

Developer can get a quick taste of the Location Kit with the sample project.

• Click on the Sample button in the Analytics Kit service panel, clone or download, and open the project in Cocos Creator.

• After enabling the Analytics Kit service and configuring the HUAWEI configuration file as described above, you can open the Build panel to compile the project by clicking Project -> Build in the Creator editor menu bar. Cocos Creator v2.4.1 and above, you could publish to HUAWEI AppGallery Connect. Below Creator v2.4.1 could publish to the Android platform.

• Need to test on Huawei or Honor brand phones with HMS Core service installed.

• Once the Sample project is running on the phone, click the Push button on the homepage for testing.
