We have a session initation event as
action: session_init
The action_source of the event should be according to entry point used by user to initiate the session. The following sources to be instrumented:

@Pginer-WMF Please confirm if the list mentioned in the description covers all the entry points which will be exposed during the experiment.
@KCVelaga_WMF Currently session_init event is triggered as soon as the user lands on en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AutomaticTranslation. Is that the expected behavior or should it be logged when the user lands on the confirm step?
Based on how the session_init event is triggered, the search functionality (and entrypoint) is present after that event triggers.

Yes, that is the expected behaviour. We have a separate event for confirmation.
Yes. The list seems quite complete.
The only workflow not considered in the list above is when accessing MT through a link from another machine translated article, but that may not be considered a pure entry point since the user is already using the tool. So the omission may be intentional.

Yes, that won't be considered as new session as the user would have already started a session to read an article, and then proceeds to another article. We have a separate event when user clicks to view MT content.
That is true. Just to confirm the possible values for action_source in the session_init are:
search will never be used as an action_source in session_init event. There is a separate search event but I wonder if it's valid to call it a "sources for session initiation".

@abi_ There's search within the feature itself, for which we have an event, and yes, by that time the session would have already been initiated. But there is an entry point where users search for an article (general Wikipedia search), and if the article is not present, a dialog to to view automatic translation will appear, and that takes them to the feature, which will initiate a new session. "Searching for a missing page" entry point in T340997 task description.
The "Searching for a missing page" was explored, but I think it was not implemented. The ones selected for the initial implementation were those from the language selector and at the article page footer.

Okay, if it's not part of the MVP, we can skip it.

This cannot be QA'ed until 1130942: AX: Enable entry-points on Tswana and Venetian wiki | https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/mediawiki-config/+/1130942 is deployed because currently all entrypoints for MinT for Wikireaders is disabled.
