Workflow: Overview

What are Workflow Explorations?

Workflow explorations empower developers to monitor mobile app activity with precision. It enables instant toggling of observability and targeted selection of data for ingestion, from a single client to millions of devices. Deploying a workflow takes seconds, freeing you from the lengthy mobile release cycles that typically take weeks or months.

Use Cases

Workflows prove invaluable in many scenarios:

  • Issue Investigation: Toggle detailed granular instrumentation for specific clients during short-lived periods to diagnose ongoing problems.
  • Release Health Monitoring: Configure rules to augment data collection during app version rollouts.
  • A/B Test Analysis: Contrast user behavior and app performance between different groups during experiments.
  • Error and Performance Monitoring: Create long-lived monitoring to catch elusive errors and edge cases.
  • User Journey Analysis: Track and understand user flows at each stage.

Key Functionality

Workflows encompass a wide range of features, including:

  • Device-Specific Targeting: Precisely target devices based on OS information, app data, network details, or even individual devices.
  • Efficient Log Matching: Scan log bodies and fields using plain text, regex, or semantic versioning comparisons to capture only relevant signals.
  • Event Occurrence Tracking: Create time series charts to visualize the frequency of specific events.
  • Detailed Session Information Access: Seamlessly integrate with Session Timeline to access in-depth session information.
  • Multi-Step Journey Tracking: Create funnel visualizations to analyze, segment, and compare steps in user journeys.

See the Workflows Feature Guide for a comprehensive walkthrough of all the features.
