Capture User Interactions

You can enable the iOS Agent to track certain UI events triggered by user interactions. Once user interactions have been captured, you can sort sessions by UI event and view UI events in the timeline of the session waterfall.

You can capture when users do one or all of the following:

press buttons
select table cells
select text fields
select text views

Note: Security and Privacy Concerns

The interaction capture mode is disabled by default for security and privacy reasons as user interactions may contain sensitive information. Moreover, this potential security and privacy issue may be compounded if you enable both the capturing of UI interactions and screenshots.

Enable User Interaction Capture Mode

To enable user interaction capture mode, you assign the capture mode to the property interactionCaptureMode of the ADEumAgentConfiguration object. The instrumentation code example below configures the iOS Agent to capture all the supported types of user interactions.

ADEumAgentConfiguration *config = [[ADEumAgentConfiguration alloc] initWithAppKey: <#EUM_APP_KEY#>];
config.interactionCaptureMode = ADEumInteractionCaptureModeAll;
[ADEumInstrumentation initWithConfiguration:config];

You can also configure the iOS Agent to only capture one type of user interaction:

ADEumAgentConfiguration *config = [[ADEumAgentConfiguration alloc] initWithAppKey: <#EUM_APP_KEY#>];
config.interactionCaptureMode = ADEumInteractionCaptureModeButtonPressed;
[ADEumInstrumentation initWithConfiguration:config];
