User Info Tracking Configuration

The userInfoTracking.conf file controls the feature of tracking a user’s location, including IP Address, Geo Location, and Request headers. If the feature is enabled (that is, enabled = true), then:

The following properties can be configured: (The baseline delivered value for each property is listed below along with a description of the property.)  

Property

Default Value

Description

enabled

false

This is a design flag for the user information tracking feature. In order to use the associated feature, the enabled property must be set to true and the application must be bounced.

  • If the enabled property is true, then the user’s information (IP Address, Geo Location, and Request header) is stored in the system, based on the setting of the enabled property for the ipAddress, geoLocation, and requestHeader properties).

  • If the enabled property is false, then nothing will be stored in system.

ipAddress

true

If enabled = true for this property, then the IP address of the user is saved every time the user logs into Advantage.

geoLocation

true

If enabled = true for this property, then the Geo Location of the user is saved every time the user logs into Advantage. In addition to the disclaimer, the user will see a browser pop-up, asking for permission to track the user’s location. The data for geolocation is subject to user’s permission.

requestHeader

true

If enabled = true, under this section, then the request header information (where the application is accessed from) is captured.

For example: {"user-agent":"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.110 Safari/537.36"}
