Now i'm trying to use firebase analytics for analyze user data.
To do so, I followed the documented guide from developer site. So now I can recognize the data what I added in my project.
However, I cannot understand some index.
First of all, I made an event which user clicked button.
Firebase.analytics.logEvent("goto_qrscan") {
param("qrscanFrom", this#WalletMainFragment.javaClass.simpleName)
}
so, I guess that total event count between 30 mins(1370) should be same as parameter value(141), but it doesn't.
I didn't put above code any other place in project.
why this happening? and how can I understand that data?
Thx in advance!

I have a bunch of mp3s and an audio player on my site. In GA3 (UA) I had an event that fired every time I hit the play button on a specific track. The event name was jPlayer, the track in question is the variable 'mediaName', which is the name of the mp3 file which is derived when I click play. In my code, mediaName is a string that gets sent out to GA. i.e. mediaName might be 'mycooltrack.mp3', or 'anothergoodtrack.mp3'
ga ('send', 'event', 'jPlayer', mediaName);
After reading the GA4 docs, I guessed that I needed to make a custom dimension, called "Track" which took the User Property/Parameter: mediaName.
So the new code in my function looked like:
gtag('event', 'jPlayer', {
'Track': mediaName
});
But after several days this hasn't been working either.
I guess I don't really understand what dimensions are and how to send an event with an 'on-the-fly' name variable to GA4, like I've been doing with UA for years.
You need to first create the event in GA4 interface. https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/10085872?hl=en&ref_topic=9756175#zippy=%2Cin-this-article%2Creserved-prefixes-and-event-names%2Cweb
It is under "Configure" on the left-hand side. Then go through the steps.
Your configuration will look something like this, if you really like the "jPlayer" event name, then just replace "audio_play" with "jPlayer"
The code you used is still relevant and can stay the same, I'd just write "track" in lowercase.
We are trying to copy conference data from one event to other but it not working for non G-suite accounts. We are using Google.Apis.Calendar.v3 libraries for .net. Following is sample code :
Event firstEvent = service.Events.Get(calendarId, "eventId1").Execute();
secondEvent.ConferenceData = firstEvent.ConferenceData;
The same code works for G-suite accounts. Is there anything special that needs to be done for non Gsuite accounts or its not supported for them? May be we are missing something. Actually issue is instead of copy conference data it gives new conference data i.e new link, new signature even if same object is set to copy. It should give same link, same copy ConferenceData after creation, isn't it?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

This is an intended behavior. New events with attendees create a Conference automatically, so it's not possible to change it with the API. G Suite users don't have this limitation and can disable this option from the Admin console.
I am logging some custom events on Firebase Analytics, but some errors keep getting logged for automatic events (such as screen_view) along with the custom events, whether I call them explicitly or not. When I log regular custom events (a button click, for example), I can see them on DebugView without any errors.
I have validated the rules for names (maximum of 36 chars for event key, maximum of 100 for value) as this answer from Chintan points and confimed that no event has reserved names.
I keep getting the error code 13 - which means Event name is reserved, according to the Analytics Error Codes.
Any ideas of what might be happening? Anybody facing the same issue?
Here's how the error is shown at DebugView:
Thanks in advance!
Edit:
Adding a piece of the log, as requested:
Can you check to see if you are using your event names prefixed as "firebase_", "google_" or "ga_"?
As per the official documentation **The "firebase_", "google_" and "ga_" prefixes are reserved and should not be used.**
According to the API docs for Analytics.Event, screen_view is a reserved event name and cannot be used for logging your own custom event.
I'm looking to have the information submitted on a google form to be on the email notification that I receive. I have tried several things but I can't seem to get it to work. Any ideas?
Create a new form in Google Docs, if you haven’t done that yet, add the necessary fields to the form and save your changes. Now go back to Google Docs and open the spreadsheet corresponding to that particular form.
Choose Tools > Notification rules... and select the option that says Notify me when... A user submits a form. You can also set how frequently you would like to be notified – right away or with daily digest.
Reference: https://support.google.com/docs/answer/91588
To get the notification in your email, you can refer to the this Google add-on.
Also to enable the data or responses to appear in notification you have to enter a script in the form. which basically tries to extract the columns from the spreadsheet. Sample:
var p = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var column = p.getRange(1,1,1,s.getLastColumn()).getValues()[0];
I hope you build the script by yourself!
I am in the process of setting up enhanced Ecommerce for GA and have had a few requests of additional of what else the client would like to see in their reports. Once of which is
"Where can i see a report if the locations that a use types in when they use the store locator"
There is already an internal search functionality thats been set up and is tracking the search terms people are typing when looking for products, but i'm not sure if i would need to set this up as a second search terms report or if it's something different?
The URL of the page is different to the internal search results and is www.domain.com/store-locator#wales|GB|0|0|0
Any insight into this would be really helpful.
Thanks,

As to me knowledge, you are not able to use bookmarks (#something) in GA for internal site search setup. Only GET and POST parameters are allowed. In your situation I think the best solution is to use GA events to send the data about used location each time the user is using this functionality. You need to include addition ga() function call to track those events. Info about how to set it up you could find here: event tracking. After setting things up, you will see all the info about number and type of called events in Behavior -> Events reports section in GA.
Example code:
<button onlick="var hash_location=window.location.hash;ga('send','event','Locator',has_location)">Click me</button>
With such function new event will be send to GA with Event Category=Locator and Event Action=hash in the url. You have some complicated hash, so most probably you need to extract first some info from this using regular expression. Example to get first item from |-separated list in the hash:
var pattern = new RegExp('[^#|]+');
var hash_location = pattern.exec(window.location.hash)[0];
