I'm using IBM Presence Insights with my Android App + Estimote SDK. The SDK picks up the Beacon UUID, major and minor upon entry. Next, it successfully sends the event to PI. However, how do I send the exit event to PI since there's no "exit" API or parameter?

Exit events are automatically generated by Presence Insights when:

  1. The device is detected by another beacon, at a different zone.
  2. The device is not detected for a period greater than Device Timeout.

Device Timeout can be configured at Settings -> General -> Application Settings. The default value is 900000 ms (15 mins).

  • It's important to understand that just leaving a zone *will not* trigger an exit event unless they enter a new zone, unless they trigger the timeout. – MBillau Mar 29 '16 at 14:32
