Message Report Configuration

This topic describes the metadata that you can select to include in a report about messages that were displayed on monitored Windows or Mac endpoints (see Report Types). Messages can be used to track user sessions and their interaction with the desktop. Having proof that a user was presented with and acknowledged a message is useful for auditing and security purposes. For details, see Managing Messages.
