Does Clarity Actually Push Data to Google Analytics?
Context A:
I started a project for our company for internal intranet analytics so they can learn more about which pages work, which ones don't, popular documents, etc. I found Clarity (and thought this is great) it says that it pushes information to Google Analytics, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Additional context at the bottom to ensure question clarity, pun intended.
Confusing / Misleading Documentation:
Microsoft can you answer this question or reply to my other emails that you and I were working back and forth on? Your documentation says one thing (the quote below), but that doesn't seem to be accurate.
How does Clarity integration work?
Clarity will create a custom dimension called the 'Clarity Playback URL'. Data will start flowing into Google Analytics from the Clarity JavaScript you've added to your site without any more changes.
My Question:
So is this accurate or not, does Clarity pass information over or is this incorrectly describing Clarity behavior and that the two need to independently gather data for it to work correctly?
Initial Microsoft Response:
Sometimes it takes about 1 - 2 days to populate the initial data, if you still don’t see the data by then, you can reach out again!
Second Microsoft Response:
The account/web property that is connected has no rows in it for any query. Could you please double check and connect an account which contains data.
Final Thoughts:
So which one is it? There is no documentation on this and the project I am working on is at a standstill because of this, please advise so I can either continue forward with this or move on to a different solution because ms-clarity doesn't seem to be working as documented.
Context B:
I originally started in on this project because the previous Google Analytics that were linked into the intranet stopped working after modern / online updates (not sure which one did it, that all happened before I got here) and I had to get special approval to use Clarity and we only went with Clarity because of this piece in the documentation that essentially told us we could re-make the link between the intranet and Google Analytics as well as get more functionality coupled with Clarity.
We also did not want to do a weird patch job to get Google Analytics injected into pages and I told them a SPPKG of Clarity would do the trick... however, here we are now.
Clarity DOES NOT push data to Google Analytics. You have to gather data using Clarity and Google Analytics SEPERATLEY, and then when you integrate Clarity will work with Google Analytics to bring the data together.
So you CANNOT only install Clarity, and then expect to integrate with Google Analytics to push Clarity gathered data to Google Analytics.
I am currently testing the NSPersistentCloudKitContainer.
I have strictly followed the guidelines of the new documentation. Basically everything works as desired. I use the option NSPersistentStoreRemoteChangeNotificationPostOptionKey on the description to receive Updates from the remote data store. But the updates from the remote database are only delivered if the app is in the foreground. But I would like to update my widget based on a data change in the backend.
Does anyone has an idea how to solve this issues?
What I did so far:
Background Modes in Capabilities are enabled
Push Notifications are enabled
i called registerForRemoteNotifications
HistoryTracking and RemoteChange Option are enabled on the description of the PersistentStore
Syncing works in foreground ✅
Syncing does not work if App is in Background ❌

It seems that there is nothing that we can do at the moment.
Apple Developer Support answered my question some days ago
Thank you for contacting Apple Developer Technical Support (DTS).
The behavior and resulting limitations you describe are by design.
If you believe an alternative approach should be considered by Apple, we encourage you to file an enhancement request with information on how this design decision impacts you, and what you’d like to see done differently.
Although there is no promise that the behavior will be changed, it is the best way to ensure your thoughts on the matter are seen by the team responsible for the decision.
While a Technical Support Incident (TSI) was initially debited from your Apple Developer Program account for this request, we have assigned a replacement incident back to your account.
We are working on Dialogflow for a year now, and lately, we experienced some issues regarding stabilization, new behavior and new features causing problems. Among those problems is that when adding a synonym to an entity or a training phrases and hit save, wait for it to train then refresh again, all the newly added items are gone. It seems that Dialogflow is experiencing storage issues. And we are losing time trying to retrain again and add those items again and this is frustrating.
We have tried to troubleshoot this issue for more than a week and it seems that those issues still there:
Example 1: Synonyms already exist but Dialogflow treats them like they don't exist when visiting the "Validation" option.
Example 2: Adding new synonyms, saving and training; After a while, they disappear.
Example 3: The DF server is most of the time unavailable.
Please, Dialogflow Support Team helps us check those issues.
Thank you.
If you are an Enterprise customer I would suggest to contact them directly, if not probably you should switch to enterprise for better customer support. Since you have been using DF for a year now, you guys might have reaches some limits. For example, a single agent cannot have more than 1 million entity reference values and synonyms. For more information on quotas and limits check the following link: Doc
a customer representative suggested that I try posting these questions here.
We spent some time monitoring issues with DocuSign loading slowly. While it was now slow every time, when it was slow it seemed to hang up on a particular point in the process.
Below is a screenshot of a trace we ran in the browser and note the element which took 52 seconds to load. When loading was slow, it seemed to hang on this particular element. Could you offer any reasons as to why it could sometimes take 52 seconds or more to load this part?
We also have some other questions:
There seems to be continuous font downloading (2 or 3 meg in size) throughout the process of loading the page. This occurs each time. Why is this and can it be avoided?
Why do we sometimes see Seattle as the connection site when most of the time is Chicago?
We noticed that DocuSign asks for permission to know our location. Does this location factor into where the document is downloaded from? Is the location also used in embedded signing processes?
Thank you for your assistance.
Unfortunately, without a bit more detail I am not entirely sure I can tell you why the page was loading so slow. Is this consistent? If so is it always the same document (perhaps template?) where you see this slowness?
As for your other three questions:
In doing my own test and decryption of the web traffic via fiddler I show the fonts being rendered for each individual tag and not the entire document. This is most likely due to each tag having it's own attributes that can be set (font included).
DocuSign data centers are in Seattle, Chicago and Dallas. All DocuSign traffic can come from any of these three data centers as the system synchronously exists in all three locations. More info can be found here.
DocuSign geo-location is just used to leverage the location capability of HTML5 enabled browsers but the signers IP address is recorded either way. It has no impact on which data center the traffic comes from. It is also included in the embedded signing process. It can be disabled on a per brand basis in the Signing Resource File setting the node DocuSign_DisableLocationAwareness to true.

What's the best way to close the loop and have a desktop app "call home" with customer feedback? Right now our code will login to our SMTP server and send me some email.
The site GetSatisfaction has been an increasingly popular way to get customer feedback.
http://getsatisfaction.com/
GetSatisfaction is a community based site that builds a community around your application. Users can post questions, comments, and feedback about and application and get answers to their questions either from other members or from members of the development team themselves.
They also have an API so you can incorporate GetSatifaction into your app, and/or your site.
I've been playing with it for a couple of weeks and it is pretty cool. Kind of like stackoverflow, but for customer feedback.
Feedback from users and programmers simply is one of the most important points of development in my opinion. The whole web2.0 - beta - concept more or less is build around this concept and therefore there should be absolutely no pain involved whatsoever for the user. What does it have to do with your question? I think quite a bit. If you provide a feedback option, make it visible in your application, but don't annoy the user (like MS sometimes does with there feedback thingy on there website above all elements!!). Place it somewhere directly! visible, but discreet. What about a separate menu entry? Some leftover space in the statusbar? Put it there so it is accessible all the time. Why? People really liking your product or who are REALLY annoyed about something will probably find your feedback option in any case, but you will miss the small things. Imagine a user unsure about the value of his input "should I really write him?". This one will probably will not make the afford in searching and in the end these small things make a really outstanding product, don't they? OK, the user found your feedback form, but how should it look and what's next? Keep it simple and don't ask him dozens questions and provoke him with check- and radioboxes. Give him two input fields, one for a title and one for a long description. Not more and not less. Maybe a small text shortly giving him some info what might be useful (OS, program version etc., maybe his email), but leave all this up to him. How to get the message to you and how to show the user that his input counts? In most cases this is simple. Like levand suggested use http and post the comment on a private area on your site and provide a link to his input. After revisiting his input, make it public and accessible for all (if possible). There he can see your response and that you really care etc.. Why not use the mail approach? What about a firewall preventing him to access your site? Duo to spam in quite some modern routers these ports are by default closed and you certainly will not get any response from workers in bigger companies, however port 80 or 443 is often open... (maybe you should check, if the current browser have a proxy installed and use this one..). Although I haven't used GetSatisfaction yet, I somewhat disagree with Nick Hadded, because you don't want third parties to have access to possible private and confidential data. Additionally you want "one face to the customer" and don't want to open up your customers base to someone else. There is SOO much more to tell, but I don't want to get banned for tattling .. haha! THX for caring about the user! :)
You might be interested in UseResponse, open-source (yet not free) hosted customer feedback / idea gathering solution that will be released in December, 2001.
It should run on majority of PHP hosting environments (including shared ones) and according to it's authors it's absorbed only the best features of it's competitors (mentioned in other answers) while will have little-to-none flaws of these.
You could also have the application send a POST http request directly to a URL on your server.
What my friend we are forgetting here is that, does having a mere form on your website enough to convince the users how much effort a Company puts in to act on that precious feedback.
A users' note to a company is a true image about the product or service that they offer. In Web 2.0 culture, people feel proud of being part of continuous development strategy always preached by almost all companies nowadays.
A community engagement platform is the need of the hour & an entry point on ur website that gains enuf traction from visitors to start talking what they feel will leave no stone unturned in getting those precious feedback. Thats where products like GetSatisfaction, UserRules or Zendesk comes in.
A company's active community that involves unimagined ideas, unresolved issues and ofcourse testimonials conveys the better development strategy of the product or service they offer.
Personally, I would also POST the information. However, I would send it to a PHP script that would then insert it into a mySQL database. This way, your data can be pre-sorted and pre-categorized for analysis later. It also gives you the potential to track multiple entries by single users.
