Telemetry

To help to improve Artemis, we collect some data when the application starts. This feature can be disabled by setting telemetry.enabled in the application-prod.yml to false. When this is set to false, no data is sent to the Artemis maintainer team. By setting telemetry.sendAdminDetails to false, personal information of the instance’s admin (i.e. contact email and name) is excluded from the telemetry data. This includes the contact email and the administrator’s name.

Artemis collects the following data at the startup of an instance:

• The used Artemis version

• The contact email address of the admin, which is set in info.contact

• The name of the admin, set in info.operatorAdminName (optional)

• The server’s URL

• The operator’s name

• The used profiles (e.g. Gitlab, Jenkins, LocalVC, Aeolus, …)

Example configuration in application-prod.yml:

artemis:
    telemetry:
        enabled: true
        sendAdminDetails: false
        destination: https://telemetry.artemis.cit.tum.de

info:
    contact: contactMailAddress@cit.tum.de
    operatorName: Technical University of Munich
    operatorAdminName: Stephan Krusche

We collect this data to enhance Artemis by understanding how it is used, ensuring compatibility with different configurations, and providing better support to our users. Collecting admin contact information allows us to communicate important updates or address critical issues directly.
