How to opt out of Storybook

1. Run command

This typically disables telemetry for one instance. Note that if the tool is installed globally, it applies to the device. However, if the tool is installed per project, you’ll have to do this for each project.

storybook --disable-telemetry

2. Add environment variable

This disabled telemetry for the device you’ve set the environment variable on.

Note that if this tool is used elsewhere, like a during Continuous Integration, you’ll have to add these environment variables there, too.

STORYBOOK_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1

3. Add setting

This approach typically disables telemetry for all instances that share the configuration file.

core: disableTelemetry: true }
