Telemetry

Self-hosted instances can send anonymous usage telemetry. It is off by default: an instance administrator turns it on in Admin › Telemetry, which shows exactly what is sent.

What is sent

{
  "instanceId": "3f1c2a9e-8b7d-4c1e-9a2f-6d5e4b3a2c1d",
  "version": "2.0.0",
  "projects": 12
}

• instanceId: a random ID created for this purpose; it identifies nothing but the instance.
• version: the instance’s version.
• projects: how many projects it has.

Nothing else: no names, emails, URLs, repositories or IP-derived data are stored.

When and where

Once a day, from the instance’s hourly cron, as a POST to https://app.bohr.io/api/telemetry. The first ping goes out right away when you turn it on, so Last sent shows it worked.

Why

To know how many instances and versions are out there, so bohr knows what to keep compatible.

Turning it off

• Switch Send anonymous telemetry off in Admin › Telemetry, or
• set the variable BOHR_TELEMETRY=off in wrangler.jsonc and deploy. It keeps telemetry off whatever the panel says; the panel then shows “Telemetry is turned off in this instance’s configuration (BOHR_TELEMETRY=off)”.

bohr.io Cloud never sends telemetry; it only receives these pings.
