Privacy and network traffic (Beta)

Disabling network traffic collection

Network traffic collection can be disabled completely using the monitorNetwork launch option. See configuration for more info.

Sanitizing data

Bugsee captures network activity and stores headers and, in some cases, the body of requests and responses. To hide user-identifiable or sensitive data, set a filter callback that Bugsee calls for every network event about to be recorded.

Return null from the filter to suppress the event entirely.

Bugsee.setNetworkEventFilter { event ->
    event?.let {
        // Redact authorization headers
        it.headers = it.headers?.filterKeys { key ->
            !key.equals("Authorization", ignoreCase = true)
        }
        // Redact sensitive URLs
        if (it.url?.contains("/api/auth") == true) {
            it.body = "[REDACTED]"
        }
        it
    }
}

The callback is called multiple times for each request depending on its lifecycle — usually twice for successful requests: once with the request event and once after completion with the response.
