I have a Xamarin app. Both apps (android and ios) are connected to a firebase project which is linked to a GA4 account.
I have successfully logged the e-commerce events through the instructions in the Firebase documentation (https://firebase.google.com/docs/analytics/measure-ecommerce), however, I encountered some issues.
In all of my e-commerce events, the "items" parameter does not show in GA4. If I check the e-commerce events on the reports I can see all the other parameters, however, when I try to see item_id, item_name, etc. they do not show up in GA4.
Items show on Debug View for all the e-commerce events but in the Events option (both GA4 and Firebase) there is no way to visualize the "items" parameter.

Also noticed that for the event "add_to_cart" there are additional cards like "Top Products". So far I couldn't find any other e-commerce event that shows additional cards like that, not even the "purchase" event.

Haven't tried Google Tag Manager or BigQuery.
Is there any way to visualize items for all the e-commerce events that require it in GA4 or outside GA4?

I want to create a custom alert in Google Analytics according to this guide
But this functionality is available only for Universal Analytics properties. And I can't find the custom alerts section for my GA4 properties as well as for Firebase Analytics property. There is a similar thing - Custom Insights but looks like it's not possible to select your own events there as trigger. And I need these alerts for data coming from mobile apps (they are using Firebase Analytics). Is there any workaround, is it possible to create a custom alert for GA4?
Why do I need a custom alert in the first place? I want to have a notification when multiple users are not finishing the sign-up process.
At the moment, there are no ways to do it in interface. You can eventually build a your customized system that reads data in BigQuery every day and sends you an email based on the rules you have defined.
I am logging some new custom events using Firebase Analytics in a React Native app. The events do show up in the Firebase events page after some delay, but the user count for these new events is "0", and I am trying to determine what the issue is. Other custom events that were already in place do show a user count, so it does seem that Firebase is correctly configured in the app.
Here is a screenshot of the event page for a new event:
And here is the debug view where I have confirmed the event comes through and that my user ID is set. I call setUserId before logging these events. You can see that the user_id property is set:
I have been logging this event for several days in an app build that is not in debug mode. The app has been used by just a handful of users.
Another issue that might be related is that these new custom events do not show on the "Events" dashboard. I have to click into a different event and then type the event name in the filter at the top of the screen (as can be seen in the first screenshot) to find the event.
Thanks for any help!
For some reason, when I look in Google Analytics, the events that are being registered all have event categories that do not exist anymore in my Google Tag Manager.
I configured the event categories as 'click' when I first started using GTM, but changed these categories later so that they were more informative. I published the most recent version of my workspace and if I look at the settings the event categories are correctly displayed with the new names. GTM settings thus appear to be OK.
Also, when I test my website using the tag assistant in Chrome the tag details linked to my events are correct:
Type - Google Analytics: Universal Analytics
Firing Status - Succeeded
Non-Interaction Hit - false
Enable overriding settings in this tag - false
Category - 'plan'
As you see, the category is registered as 'plan' and not as 'click'.
So how can it be that Google Analytics is still registering events from my website visitors with 'click' as event category, even though it is deleted from the settings? Any idea where I should look? I don't know how to troubleshoot his problem further, so I'm unsure what other details I should share about the issue.
After importing our Firebase app events in Google Ads as conversions, their status stays at "no recent conversions". The events are recordeding fine in Firebase.
Both our native iOS and Android app are implemented, but none show conversions in Google Ads
The package name of one of our apps was updated
We unlinked Google Ads from Firebase and linked it again, but that didn't work either
We are talking about custom events (an in-app action) and native events (like first open)
It seems like we can't really delete conversions. We can delete and re-enable, but can't "start over".
How can we make recording our events as conversions work?
The answer was hiding in the comment made by #Akif Demirezen.
On Firebase, go to project settings
Under "Your apps" section, make sure to fill the "App Store ID" field, you can find this information on your App Store connect page, under Apple ID
I'm sending Measurement Protocol Hits to capture the final stage of a checkout process (Order Delivered). These Hits are sent to a Mobile App Property I am using for testing. I have chosen this approach because the information is only available offline.
The problem is that I see these events in the event report (events report screenshot) but I do not see the corresponding Enhanced Ecommerce related data in the Ecommerce Report (enhanced ecommerce report screenshot).
This is being sent as an event (t=event), while the Purchase Action (pa), and Checkout Step (cos) are "checkout and 5" respectively. The Hit Builder - Google Analytics Validator is validating the Hits properly.

Am expecting to see data in the Events Report and the Ecommerce Report.
Am I missing anything? Or is this a Mobile App Property Issue?
