1614522 - Missing release data for scalar_content_pdf_viewer_used/SCALARS.PDF.VIEWER.USED

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: PDF Viewer, defect)

Description

[Brendan Dahl [:bdahl]]

Romain Testard is trying to do an investigation on how the PDF viewer is used, so we enabled various PDF telemetry values in release.

Unfortunately, there seems to be problem with the data in release. The counts are very low for if the PDF viewer is used.

For example in nightly:
https://sql.telemetry.mozilla.org/queries/68178/source
We see counts of ~25,000 a day.

Whereas in release:
https://sql.telemetry.mozilla.org/queries/68177/source
The counts are less than 100.

Looks like this is a prerelease probe: https://probes.telemetry.mozilla.org/?search=PDF&view=detail&probeId=scalar%2Fpdf.viewer.used

We need to add release_channel_collection: opt-out to Scalars.yaml.

I had a feeling that it was prerelease related. I'll take this.
