To set up custom and enhanced events in Google Analytics 4 (GA4) for deeper user insights, you have two main methods: using the GA4 interface or Google Tag Manager (GTM).
- Using the GA4 Interface:
- Navigate to GA4 Admin > Events > Create Event.
- You can create new custom events by modifying existing automatically collected events (e.g., page_view, scroll).
- Name your event following GA4 rules: start with a letter, use only letters, numbers, and underscores (snake_case recommended), and avoid reserved names.
- Set matching conditions to specify when the event triggers (e.g., page_location contains "/thank-you").
- Optionally, copy parameters from the source event to retain context.
- After creation, mark the event as a conversion if desired.
- This method is simpler but limited to modifying existing events, not creating entirely new ones.
- Using Google Tag Manager:
- Open your GTM account and create a new tag.
- Select the GA4 Event tag template.
- Enter a unique event name (avoid default GA4 event names).
- Link the tag to your GA4 Measurement ID.
- Add custom parameters (e.g., button_name) to capture detailed user interaction data.
- Set triggers to specify when the event fires (e.g., button clicks, form submissions).
- Publish the container to start tracking.
- This method offers more flexibility and precision for tracking unique user actions not covered by GA4’s default events.
Best Practices for Naming and Parameters:
- Event names: max 40 characters, case sensitive, no spaces or special characters.
- Parameter names: max 40 characters; values: max 100 characters.
- Avoid using reserved event names or prefixes to prevent errors.
- Use descriptive names to easily identify events in reports.
Enhanced Measurement Events:
GA4 automatically tracks some enhanced measurement events like scrolls, outbound clicks, and video engagement. Before creating custom events, check if GA4 already collects the data you need to avoid duplication.
By setting up custom and enhanced events properly, you can gain deeper insights into user behavior, measure specific interactions, and tailor your analytics to your business goals effectively.
