Capture Device Type in Embedded Data

Current Problem: There is no embedded data variable within action sets to capture the device type (Mobile vs. Desktop). See available options below, no device type.

Guided Flow ED.PNGUse Case: Device type is an important variable in the experience. A desktop experience is very different from a mobile one. It is important to have this data captured. Additionally, it is frustrating that there is not consistency in capabilities within the website feedback tool.
Possible Solution: Add an embedded data variable for device type like within guided flow intercepts.

You can do this in the Survey Flow in the meantime.
Set an embedded variable "Device Type" = "Desktop" at the top.
Then create a branch

InessaG , yes. We use the same for finding device is mobile or device is not mobile.
