What data is submitted with my feedback?

(Updated: )

When you submit feedback from a Cyotek product via the Feedback plugin, a JSON document will be generated and submitted to a secure server. The document has the following structure:

json
{
  "comments": "<text>",
  "emailAddress": "<text>",
  "productName": "<text>",
  "productVersion": "<text>",
  "screenshot": "<base64 binary data>",
  "type": "<text>"
}
  • comments - the feedback entered by the user
  • emailAddress - if specified, the email address of the user
  • productName - the short product code
  • productVersion - the product version
  • screenshot - if the user opted to include a screenshot, this is the binary data for the screenshot encoded in base64. Depending on the version of the Feedback plugin, this may be either PNG or JPG
  • type - the type of feedback being submitted, for example generic feedback or a support request

Example

The following is an example document generated from a release build of WebCopy. The screenshot has been replaced with a small static image to keep the document size compact.
