Event type defination of Microsoft Store analytics API

Question

Dear sir,

Could you kindly provide additional details about the eventType property included in the response of the https://manage.devcenter.microsoft.com/v1.0/my/analytics/desktop/failurehits API? I would appreciate more comprehensive definitions and some examples to understand its usage and possible values better. Thank you.

Hi @Kevin Su,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

According to the documentation so far, it just says eventType is a string value indicating the type of event that caused the failure.

• crash When the app stops working and exits unexpectedly, It can be caused by bugs, errors, or malicious attacks.
• hang When the app stops responding, it can be caused deadlock, infinite loop, or resource exhaustion.
• memory When the app encounters a problem with accessing or managing the memory, it can be caused by memory leak, memory corruption, or out of memory.
• jse When the app encounters a JavaScript error. It can happen when there is a problem in UWP WebView.

Thank you.
