Attached Data Overview

Co-browse does not have a dedicated type of interaction. Data for reporting must be attached to the primary chat or voice interaction. Almost all data necessary is automatically attached by IWS/WDE plug-ins as described below. The only default Co-browse statistic not automatically attached to the interaction is source/web (key/value).

Important
Please note the following about attached data:
  • CoBrowseDuration is not used for reporting purposes.
  • CoBrowseEndTime was removed from Reporting 8.5.0.

Manually Attached Data

Data for custom statistics should be attached on the browser side with the creation of a primary interaction.

The table below describes the Co-browse attached data keys. The section Events that Update Co-browse Attached Data describes how the data is updated throughout a co-browse session.
