Data Collection

Data Collection

The Data Collection Module of the ZSA mobile application is designed to gather a wide range of data to support device management and analytics. The collection interval and schedule upload can be configured and details are provided in the configuration table.
This feature can be configured using Managed Configuration through MDM and is applicable only to non-Zebra devices. By default, the data collection is disabled. When the admin enables data collection, all default data collection starts capturing data. Admin can only enable or disable the collections that are non-default.
