Description

For stf-device-db.

Ways to POST data to Google Spreadsheets:

Possible ways to send the data:

  • Just from the error logs, the admin will see it and copy/paste the device info to the Google Form (Low discoverability).
  • From the UI, show a dialog (only once) asking if its OK to "send the data of the following unknown devices" (High discoverability). May be a bit annoying because it will be shown to all users using STF (even if its only once). Need to maintain a list of unknown devices in the db.
