CX Mobile uses the user agent detection capabilities of the cxImpact platform to detect user agent-related information in the capture stream. It then performs a lookup of the user agent data against the WURFL public standard.
To capture the mobile device customer base, CX Mobile requires more configuration and periodic updates to reflect the changing landscape of mobile devices.

This session agent detects user agent data and then perform lookups into the configured files to determine matches.
- Within Tealeaf Reference session agent, enable extended user agent detection.
- Restart the Transport Service on each Canister.
- Use a mobile device to browse your web application. If you can locate the session, you can verify the presence of mobile user agent information.
- Use the Tealeaf CX Mobile dashboard to view preconfigured events. The preconfigured events detect mobile visitors and their related data through the CX Mobile dashboard.
- Replay mobile visitor sessions with CX RTV.
- Verify that events are reported.
Periodically, you must update the BrowsCap.csv
and WURFL.xml
files.
Configure the capture of user interface events from mobile browsers. If you licensed and deployed UI Capture, you can configure the deployed JavaScripts to capture user interface events for mobile browsers and to forward them to Tealeaf for processing.
