Here is some useful code from Adobe Scout developer, Mark Shepherd:

-

---

Here’s an example of using sendSpanMetric() and sendMetric():

public function foo(): void {

....

// record the start time for my task

var startTime: Number = Telemetry.spanMarker;

// do my task

...

// report the task as a telemetry metric

Telemetry.sendSpanMetric("my.task", startTime);

..

// report some other information

Telemetry.sendMetric("number of things", 12345);

Telemetry.sendMetric("state selected", "Oregon");

}

The elapsed time between the call to ’spanMarker’ and the call to ’sendSpanMetric’ will appear in Scout's Top Activities, Activity Sequence, and Summary panels with the label "my.task". The information "number of things: 12345" and "state selected: Oregon" will appear in Scout's Activity Sequence panel.

You can use any label, as long as it doesn’t start with a "."

Here’s an example of using ’connected’. You would do this if the "computeValue()" function is very expensive, and you don’t want to use it unless Scout is actually listening.

if (Telemetry.connected) {

var computedValue: Object = computeValue();

Telemetry.sendMetric("my computed value", computedValue);

}

Scout doesn’t yet support registerCommandHandler() or unregisterCommandHandler(), these are for future use.

I'm not able to call the commands. I'm getting a compiler error,

Error 1120: Access of undefined property Telemetry.
