Use the library pack for the following purposes.

### Educating users after browser updates

The Browser behavior awareness workflow automatically detects devices with a recent browser update and triggers a contextual educational campaign.&#x20;

The campaign explains what the local network access prompt means, provides clear guidance on how to respond safely, and reinforces that blocking is the safest option when in doubt.

The automated workflow trigger is the core of this process, operating according to the following logic:

* First, it detects devices where the primary browser was recently updated.
* It excludes users who have already received the campaign within the defined timeframe.

### Monitoring browser updates and education impact

Use the **Browser Behavior Awareness dashboard** to track browser activity and campaign effectiveness.

From the **Live dashboards** module, you can:

* Monitor version distribution across Chrome, Edge, and Firefox
* Identify update rollout gaps
* Measure **campaign reach** and **acknowledgment rates**
* Compare adoption and awareness across browsers

This supports both:

* Operational monitoring of update rollouts
* Reporting on user education effectiveness

In addition to the relevant use cases covered below, you may uncover other troubleshooting scenarios specific to your environment.

### Monitoring browser updates and campaign performance

Use the **Browser Behavior Awareness dashboard** to understand how updates and education perform across your environment.

1. From the navigational menu, go to **Live dashboards**.
2. Open the **Browser Behavior Awareness dashboard**.
3. Review browser version distribution across Chrome, Edge, and Firefox.
4. Analyze update adoption to detect fragmentation or delays.
5. Check **campaign reach** and **acknowledgment rates**.
6. Compare results across browsers to identify awareness gaps.

Use these insights to refine targeting and improve user education.
