clearCrashHistory

Usage

Use hotUpdater.clearCrashHistory() when testing a previously rejected artifact again. Clearing history only changes the current device: it does not deploy a Release, change delivery policy, download an update, or reload the app.

import { hotUpdater } from "./hotUpdater";

hotUpdater.clearCrashHistory();
const remainingArtifacts = hotUpdater.getCrashHistory();

if (remainingArtifacts.length === 0) {
  console.log("Device crash history is empty");
} else {
  console.error("Crash history still contains rejected artifacts", remainingArtifacts);
}

Return value

clearCrashHistory(): boolean

On iOS, returns true when the cleared history is saved and false if saving fails. On Android, returns true even if saving fails; the return value does not confirm that the history was cleared. Read getCrashHistory() afterward when you need to confirm that no rejected artifacts remain.

The method is synchronous and does not make a network request.

An artifact that caused a crash can be selected again after clearing history. Use this for a controlled retry after investigating the failure; calling it at every startup removes the protection provided by the rejection history.
