Install Browser extension:

  • Use a browser extension

  • Install extension and turn ON debug mode

Open Google Analytics:

  • Log in to your GA4 property in Google Analytics

  • Navigate to Admin in left sidebar, and then select DebugView under the Property column

Trigger Events on Your Website:

While on your website in debug mode, perform some actions, such as navigation between pages or clicking buttons that should trigger events.

Monitor Events in DebugView:

  • In DebugView, you’ll see a real-time stream of events on the right side of the screen. Each event should correspond to actions you’ve performed on your website.

  • Events show up as dots on a timeline, with recent events listed at the top.

  • If your GA4 tags are working, you should see events like page_view, scroll, add_to_cart or any custom events you’ve set up.

Verify Event Details:

  • Click on each event to view detailed information, such as parameters and user properties, confirming that GA4 is capturing data accurately.

That’s how to check if GA4 is working or not.
