What are events?

The data collected by this app relies on events. An event is an action which was performed by a user.

We distinguish between two kinds of collected data: "view" and "interaction".

View data

View data is used to monitor certain events which are observed over a span of time. Such events could be "loading time" or "average time spent using the app".

Interaction data

An interaction is a single one-off action which must be triggered. A click on a button or a link are examples for interaction data.



What kind of data can be collected?

Only data conforming to a fixed JSON schema can be written to the database. This means that the database won't accept any data which is not defined in the code you see below.

Any other information communicated by the browser can neither be stored nor saved or transmitted anywhere in any form.


The JSON schema used by Linchpin App Usage:
