Sometimes this represents a bug in the Jexl filter + parser/evaluator, such as in `bug 1477156 + `_, or it can + represent an error fetching some data that a Jexl recipe needs such + as `bug 1447804 + `_. + +.. data:: RECIPE_INVALID_ACTION + + :Telemetry value: download_error + + The action specified by the recipe was invalid and it could not be executed. + +.. data:: RECIPE_SUCCESS + + :Telemetry value: success + + The recipe was executed successfully. + +.. data:: RECIPE_SIGNATURE_INVALID + + :Telemetry value: signature_error + + Normandy failed to verify the signature of the recipe. + + +Additionally, Normandy reports a :ref:`keyed scalar ` to measure recipe +freshness. This scalar is called ``normandy.recipe_freshness``, and it +corresponds to the ``last_modified`` date of each recipe (using its ID +as the key), reported as seconds since 1970 in UTC. + + +Enrollment +----------- +Normandy records enrollment and unenrollment of users into studies, and +records that data using :ref:`Telemetry Events `. All data is stored in the +``normandy`` category. + + +Enrollment IDs +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Most Normandy telemetry carries an *enrollment ID*. These IDs are generated +when Normandy enrolls the client in a change, be it a study, rollout, or +something else. These enrollment IDs are used for the lifetime of that +change, and are only used for that change (not shared between similar +changes). Once a change ends (either via unenrollment, graduation, or another +method) the enrollment ID should not be used again. + +When Telemetry upload is disabled, we must clear these enrollment IDs. This +is done by replacing existing enrollment IDs with a filler value. New changes +continue to receive a enrollment IDs as normal. The only thing that +enrollment IDs are used for Telemetry, and so generated them while Telemetry +is disabled is fine. They don't correlate to anything else, and won't be sent +anywhere. + +Preference Studies +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Enrollment + method + The string ``"enroll"`` + object + The string ``"preference_study"`` + value + The name of the study (``recipe.arguments.slug``). + extra + branch + The name of the branch the user was assigned to (example: + ``"control"`` or ``"experiment"``). + experimentType + The type of preference experiment. Currently this can take + values "exp" and "exp-highpop", the latter being for + experiments targeting large numbers of users. + enrollmentId + A UUID that is unique to this users enrollment in this study. It + will be included in all future telemetry for this user in this + study. + +Enrollment Failed + method + The string ``"enrollFailed"`` + object + The string ``"preference_study"`` + value + The slug of the study (``recipe.arguments.slug``) + extra + reason + The reason for unenrollment. Possible values are: + + * ``"invalid-branch"``: The recipe specifies an invalid preference + branch (not to be confused with the experiment branch). Valid values + are "default" and "user". + preferenceBranch + If the reason was ``"invalid-branch"``, the branch that was + specified, truncated to 80 characters. + +Unenrollment + method + The string ``"unenroll"``. + object + The string ``"preference_study"``. + value + The name of the study (``recipe.arguments.slug``). + extra + didResetValue + The string ``"true"`` if the preference was set back to its + original value, ``"false"`` if it was left as its current + value. This can happen when, for example, the user changes a + preference that was involved in a user-branch study. + reason + The reason for unenrollment. Possible values are: + + * ``"recipe-not-seen"``: The recipe was no longer + applicable to this client This can be because the recipe + was disabled, or the user no longer matches the recipe's + filter. + * ``"unknown"``: A reason was not specified. This should be + considered a bug. + enrollmentId + The ID that was generated at enrollment. + +Unenroll Failed + method + The string ``"unenrollFailed"``. + object + The string ``"preference_study"``. + value + The name of the study (``recipe.arguments.slug``) + extra + enrollmentId + The ID that was generated at enrollment. + reason + A code describing the reason the unenroll failed. Possible values are: + + * ``"does-not-exist"``: The system attempted to unenroll a study that + does not exist. This is a bug. + * ``"already-unenrolled"``: The system attempted to unenroll a study + that has already been unenrolled. This is likely a bug. + caller + On Nightly builds only, a string identifying the source of the requested stop. + originalReason + The code that would had been used for the unenrollment, had it not failed. + +Experimental Preference Changed + method + The string ``"expPrefChanged"`` + object + The string ``"preference_study"``. + value + The name of the study (``recipe.arguments.slug``) + extra + enrollmentId + The ID that was generated at enrollment. + preferenceName + The name of the preference that changed. Note that the value of the + preference (old or new) is not given. + reason + A code describing the reason that Normandy detected the preference + change. Possible values are: + + * ``"atEnroll"``: The preferences already had user value when the + experiment started. + * ``"sideload"``: A preference was changed while Normandy's observers + weren't active, likely while the browser was shut down. + * ``"observer"``: The preference was observed to change by Normandy at + runtime. + +Preference Rollouts +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Enrollment + Sent when a user first enrolls in a rollout. + + method + The string ``"enroll"`` + object + The string ``"preference_rollout"`` + value + The slug of the rollout (``recipe.arguments.slug``) + extra + enrollmentId + A UUID that is unique to this user's enrollment in this rollout.

The represents a + misconfiguration of the preferences in the recipe on the server. + * ``"would-be-no-op"``: All of the preference specified in the rollout + already have the given values. This represents an error in targeting + on the server. + * ``"conflict"``: At least one of the preferences specified in the + rollout is already managed by another active rollout. + preference + For ``reason="invalid type"``, the first preference that was invalid. + For ``reason="conflict"``, the first preference that is conflicting. + +Update + Sent when the preferences specified in the recipe have changed, and the + client updates the preferences of the browser to match. + + method + The string ``"update"`` + object + The string ``"preference_rollout"`` + value + The slug of the rollout (``recipe.arguments.slug``) + extra + previousState + The state the rollout was in before this update (such as ``"active"`` or ``"graduated"``). + enrollmentId + The ID that was generated at enrollment. + +Graduation + Sent when Normandy determines that further intervention is no longer + needed for this rollout.

Possible values are: + + * ``"install-failure"``: The add-on failed to install. + * ``"individual-opt-out"``: The user opted-out of this + particular study. + * ``"general-opt-out"``: The user opted-out of studies in + general. + * ``"recipe-not-seen"``: The recipe was no longer applicable + to this client. This can be because the recipe was + disabled, or the user no longer matches the recipe's + filter. + * ``"uninstalled"``: The study's add-on as uninstalled by some + mechanism. For example, this could be a user action or the + add-on self-uninstalling. + * ``"uninstalled-sideload"``: The study's add-on was + uninstalled while Normandy was inactive. This could be that + the add-on is no longer compatible, or was manually removed + from a profile. + * ``"unknown"``: A reason was not specified. This should be + considered a bug. + enrollmentId + The ID that was generated at enrollment. -- cgit v1.2.3
