[Swift Concurrency] Performance Monitoring does not collect network traces when using URLSession's `async` methods

[moyerr]

Description

I noticed that my app's network requests were not showing up at all in Performance Monitoring. I traced the issue to the fact that I am using URLSession's concurrency (async/await) APIs.

I can tell everything is set up properly because I can see the network traces when I use URLSession's closure-based APIs.

Reproducing the issue

// ❌ This network call does not show up in Performance Monitoring
let (data, response) = try await URLSession.shared.data(for: request)

// ✅ This network call does show up in Performance monitoring
URLSession.shared
  .dataTask(with: try request) { data, response, error in
    // Handle the response
  }
  .resume()

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

Hi @moyerr, I tried to reproduce the issue using the code snippet you shared, but I'm able to see my network requests in the console. Could you provide an MCVE or complete code snippet that reproduces the issue?

Hey @moyerr. We need more information to resolve this issue but there hasn't been an update in 5 weekdays. I'm marking the issue as stale and if there are no new updates in the next 5 days I will close it automatically.

If you have more information that will help us get to the bottom of this, just add a comment!

I am seeing the same issue, but it appears to be iOS version specific.

• On iOS 16 and 17, network requests that are made via the async URLSession data(for request) function are not recorded and do not appear in the logs when -FIRDebugEnabled is used.
• public func data(for request: URLRequest) async throws -> (Data, URLResponse)
• On iOS 15, it works as expected and the following is reported.
  10.16.0 - [FirebasePerformance][I-PRF100009] Logging network request trace - {url}, Response code: 200, 928.3030ms

I am able to see logs for requests made using the completionHandler based URLSession functions across all iOS versions without any issues

• public func dataTask(with request: URLRequest, completionHandler: @escaping CompletionHandler) -> URLSessionDataTask
