# GooglePlayServicesObserver

Observer for Google Play Services related events.

Use this interface to track SDK interactions with Google Play Services location APIs, such as requesting and removing location updates.

## GooglePlayServicesObserver API

### `onRequestLocationUpdates`

> ```java
> void onRequestLocationUpdates(LocationRequest request, Task<Void> result)
> ```
>
> Called when the SDK requests location updates from Google Play Services. The SDK uses a single `PendingIntent` for all location update requests. Multiple requests may use different `LocationRequest` parameters, but all share the same `PendingIntent`. Removing location updates therefore clears all active requests. Use `result` to inspect whether the request succeeded or failed.

### `onRemoveLocationUpdates`

> ```java
> void onRemoveLocationUpdates(Task<Void> result)
> ```
>
> Called when the SDK removes location updates from Google Play Services. Because all requests share a single `PendingIntent`, removing updates clears all active requests. Use `result` to inspect whether the remove request succeeded or failed.

## Threading

> Observer callbacks are posted on the main thread.

## Example

```java
GooglePlayServicesObserver observer = new GooglePlayServicesObserver() {
    @Override
    public void onRequestLocationUpdates(LocationRequest request, Task<Void> result) {
        // Inspect request and async result.
    }

    @Override
    public void onRemoveLocationUpdates(Task<Void> result) {
        // Inspect async remove result.
    }
};

SdkDiagnostics diagnostics =
        new SdkDiagnostics.Builder()
                .googlePlayServicesObserver(observer)
                .build();

SentianceOptions options =
        new SentianceOptions.Builder(context)
                .diagnostics(diagnostics)
                .build();
```
