Hi @reddy_y-11 --

Browser and device information is collected based mostly on the user-agent http information collected from the hit. That information usually provides the OS, application, browser type, and browser version.

You can get additional information about the browser and device variable here:

I believe Adobe also started using the new Browser Client Hints from newer browsers, in addition to the user agent string to get more specificity.
