Recorded apps

View and manage the list of applications where processes made by the users are captured. The Client App logs only data for these applications.

Under the Recorded Apps section, create the Recorded Applications list by adding applications or websites. This is a mandatory step to be able to record successfully. The Client App will only log data for these applications and websites.

Below is an overview of the available lists:

• Globally for all users tab - the list of applications that are implemented and recorded for all the users. Once you set the list of the Recorded Apps, users cannot change it. However, they can request other applications to be added through the Client App.

  • Allow recording - the list of applications and websites that will be included in the recording.
  • Deny recording - the list of applications and websites that Task Capture will ignore when recording.

• On Individual Users' Request tab - the list of applications that users have requested to be recorded through the Client App > Recorded Apps > Add App.

  • Allow recording - the list of applications and websites that will be included in the recording.
  • Deny recording - the list of applications and websites that Task Capture will ignore when recording.
