You can help improve the Julia VS Code extension by sending usage statistics and exceptions to the development team. By default, telemetry and crash report data are not collected, but rather the user has to opt-in to have their data sent.
By default both julia.enableTelemetry and julia.enableCrashReporter are set to null. With the null setting, no data is sent to the development team. The UI does send a prompt asking the user to agree to enabling the settings for telemetry and crash report. Without opting in, your data is not sent to the development team.
If the julia.enableTelemetry setting is configured to be true, anonymous, non-identifying usage and error data is sent to the development team.
When the julia.enableCrashReporter setting is configured to be true, stack traces from errors in the extension are sent to the development team. Those stack traces can contain identifying information, for example filenames.
This information is collected and sent via Azure Application Insights.
To disable telemetry and not report any usage data or crash reports, set the julia.enableTelemetry and julia.enableCrashReporter setting to false.
The collected data is used to improve the julia VS Code extension. We don't sell the information. We might sometimes publish anonymous statistics (for example number of users etc.)
