- Custom Variables: a feature which allows Customers to track End Users by an available HTML element, variable, or cookie and which may be used to distinguish between segments of End Users. For instance, a Customer may use a custom variable to provide certain WalkMe content to only a particular set of End Users.
- Custom User Identifier: a feature which allows Customers to track End User Identifier by an available HTML element, variable or cookie.
- Adaptive Element Recognition:a feature that improves element recognition accuracy over time, which when using capture in the editor component of the service and in rare occasions may capture a page snapshot and/or a screenshot in order to correct the element recognition.

By default, Sessions Recordings does not record any keystrokes. This is the recommended setting, but can be changed via the WalkMe Dashboard. Please note, Session Recording never records password inputs and provides the ability to specify that other elements of your website or application will not be tracked.
