  • The storage of raw site traffic data — When the data storage is enabled, the system stores data about individual hits, pages and sessions to support drilling down and export functionality in the Session Browser. 

    Note

    Enabling or disabling session data storage does not impact other features, such as reports, Watchpoint streaming, and bulk data export.

    Tip

    Disabling this feature might increase the system performance.

    Warning

    Disabling this feature prevents any further data from reaching the Session Browser and renders the data storage configuration irrelevant.

  • Launching URLs in a browser window from the Session browser — When the URL launch feature is enabled, users can launch URLs from monitored traffic displayed in the web interface of the system.

  • Bulk data export — When bulk data export is enabled, external applications can use the system as a source for data mining, warehousing, and other integrations (via HTTPS interfaces).
  • Watchpoint streaming — When enabled, external applications can tap directly into the system data-processing engine to receive real-time data feeds.
  • Nonsecure data transfer — By default, URL-based data exports (whether for export APIs or for Watchpoint streaming) use a secure connection (HTTPS). When nonsecure data transfer is enabled, you can specify that the actual data delivery might use a nonsecure connection (HTTP) to achieve faster transfer rates with minimal impact on the system. 

    Note

    A request for nonsecure delivery is still required to perform authentication using a secure connection. The nonsecure data transfer flag is limited to allowing the actual delivery to be nonsecure.

  • Entitlement groups — Entitlement groups give groups of users access to data from some Watchpoints but not others. When enabled, Observers who are associated with a particular Entitlement group only have access to data from Watchpoints also associated with that Entitlement group.
