How to track events in Google Analytics 4 (2024) || GA4 event tracking

genius man

Awesome and highly useful video.

Hi ! I have issues with my customs events/conversions : basically i track phone callss or emails or forms and I apply em a value and a currency on GTM. but this values are not shown on GA4 a a total revenue.
It seems that it applies only if the event/conversion is "purchase".
I tried also to directly apply in the parameters/data display/conversions in "define a default conversion value". So i see here this conversion value, but it s not displayed in the reports as monetization or total revenues... Could you help please ?

Thank you so much for this useful video. This is super awesome !!!!!

Would love to see a video explaining how to get the most value out of the new item-scoped custom dimensions!

Hey Julius! I love your content and learn so much on daily basis. Are you planning on making a video about cookie consent settings and how to use it? That would be incredibly useful. Thanks!

Awesome and highly useful video. I really appreciate your efforts from the bottom of my heart.😊😊

If we have a Google tag, but for some reason can't find the account associated to it, how can we add that same tag to an existing GTM account container we do have access to?

External website data has started appearing in my GA results. I have no idea why as I've never dealt with these websites, they seem to be financially related and foreign which I assume is spam. How can I exclude them from my results as it's skewing everything. Thanks

Hello Julius. For your menu click event, you use the link_url and link_text parameters that are recommended for several of the Enhanced Measurement events in order to reuse known/recommended parameters as Google suggests. You show an Explorer report where you pull the data for link_url and link_text. However, what is the solution for using standard reports with events including the Enhanced Measurement events? If you go to the Events report and click on "click" or "file_download" those reports do not provide any of the recommended parameters so you have no details about any of these standard events.

When you were preparing your Explore report, there were two custom dimensions: "Link text custom dimension" and "Link URL custom dimension". Are those custom definitions based on "link_text" and "link_url" respectively? If you set up those custom definitions do the standard link_text and link_url still get data and could be used independently or is the data only available in the custom dimensions once you create them? Did you create those custom dimension parameters in order to get the data into standard reports or some other reason?

Thank you for your help and videos.

Thanks for another video! Always great to learn from you Julius!
