+In 2023, we integrated Glean with Mozilla Accounts and Event Metrics are now available for both the server-side and client-side.
+To explore available metrics, visit Glean Dictionary and browse the accounts_backend
and accounts_frontend
applications.
All events are sent in events
ping. The most effective way to query them is to use the events_stream
tables in BigQuery: accounts_frontend.events_stream
and accounts_backend.events_stream
. They are accessible in Looker via Events Stream Table
explores. Because they have extra properties packaged as a JSON structure, when these are needed it is best to use the Event Counts
explores.
The Accounts frontend is instrumented with automatic Glean website events. Data collected this way can be explored on the Website Sessions dashboard in Looker. To dig deeper you can write a query to analyze properties of these events: element_click
and page_load
.
There are two additional legacy event types described below:
Flow Metrics: these are an older set of metrics events that can be queried through the firefox_accounts
dataset in the mozdata
project in BigQuery. See this documentation for detailed description of the types of flow events that are logged and the tables that contain them (note this documentation does not contain an exhaustive list of all flow metrics but is generally still accurate about the ones that are described). These will likely evolve significantly in 2024.
Amplitude Events: FxA started to send metrics events to Amplitude circa October 2017 and ended around June 2020. While we stopped using Amplitude, the term Amplitude Events lives on to reference this set of events. Amplitude events can be queried through the moz-fx-data-shared-prod.firefox_accounts
dataset in BigQuery. moz-fx-data-shared-prod.firefox_accounts.fxa_content_auth_events
is probably the easiest BigQuery view to use, though it does not contain email bounce events. These are being completely replaced by the Glean Event Metrics and will be removed in 2024. FxA's Amplitude metrics were originally just re-configured and re-named versions of the flow metrics. However things have since diverged a bit and there are now metrics events that only have an Amplitude version but no corresponding flow event, and vice-versa. If you are wondering whether a certain event is logged its likely you will have to check both data sources.
