Usage

This API has to mandatorily be called in the 
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application openURL:(NSURL *)url sourceApplication:(NSString *)sourceApplication annotation:(id)annotation
method of your application delegate. The API is called after the Afaria client generates a URL and forwards it to the application via the delegate. This is required only if the above call is the first call to Afaria in the application.
