Background information

Workforce is a product built on top of the Fullstory platform that utilizes a browser extension to capture interaction data on web sites specifically configured by your company's IT team.

  • Workforce and the Fullstory Platform: Because Workforce is built on top of Fullstory, you'll want to understand how they work together and when to use each product.
  • Data Capture in Workforce: Understand the differences between the Fullstory JavaScript snippet and the Workforce browser extension.
  • Workforce Employee Guide: This guide provides a high level overview of how Workforce works from your employees' perspective. You can provide your own version in Workforce settings.

Setup & deployment

There are multiple steps to getting started with Workforce.

  1. Workforce Setup and Deployment Guide: Step-by-step instructions for how to configure and deploy the Workforce browser extension to your organization.
  2. Configure apps in Workforce: Even though the browser extension may be installed, Workforce doesn't start recording data until an app has been configured.
  3. Privacy and Data Capture Rules: After apps have been configured, you'll want to fine tune privacy settings to ensure you have the right level of visibility for the apps you've configured.
  4. Workforce User Management: Invite additional internal team members to your Workforce organization with the correct permissions levels.
