Action - Init Variables Network Traffic

The action Init Variables Network Traffic initializes variables with the transmitted and received bytes since device boot of the system or a specific user ID that runs a given app.

Note: Some devices do not collect user/app specific values. This is also a known problem of Android 4.3.

 

Examples:
  • Store the number of transferred data for each day in a log file.
Settings
Traffic
Whether the overall transferred data of the system should be stored or the transferred data transmitted by a particular app (respectively user ID).
Variable for total transmitted bytes

Variable for total received bytes
The name of the variable to store the received bytes since device boot.
Variable for mobile transmitted bytes
The name of the variable to store the sent bytes since device boot on the mobile interfaces.
Variable for mobile received bytes
The name of the variable to store the received bytes since device boot on the mobile interfaces.

A variable is a container for a value that can be used in many actions and conditions to dynamically define a part of a text.
See action Script for a description.
