Analytics

By default, VIP uses an in-house analytics system to record information about usage of the VIP-CLI tool. To opt-out of this data collection, set the DO_NOT_TRACK environment variable to 1:

• Per command by prepending the VIP-CLI command with DO_NOT_TRACK=1.
  For example: DO_NOT_TRACK=1 vip app list
• In the profile used most often in the local machine’s terminal application.
  For example: export DO_NOT_TRACK=1
