User Metadata
Formbricks captures metadata of your users for you when they fill a survey.
This metadata is useful for understanding the context in which the user filled the survey. For example, if you are running a marketing campaign, you can understand which source is driving the most responses. Or if you are running a survey on a specific page, you can understand the user's behavior on that page.

- Source: The source from where the user filled the survey. This could be an App, Link, or a Webpage.
- URL: The URL of the page where the user filled the survey.
- Browser: The browser used by the user to fill the survey.
- OS: The operating system of the device used by the user to fill the survey.
- Device: The device used by the user to fill the survey.
