How to make custom firebase events in Unity android project?

Question

Firebase provides some default events like level_up. Here is how you can call this event in code:

FirebaseAnalytics.LogEvent(FirebaseAnalytics.EventLevelUp, new Parameter(FirebaseAnalytics.ParameterLevel, levelNumber));

I`ve tried making my own events like this (the way firebase quickstart project does it):

FirebaseAnalytics.LogEvent("Player pressed the button", "Button name", someIntvalue)); 

Basically sending parameters as strings.

I`ve also tried writing this function like that:

FirebaseAnalytics.LogEvent("Player pressed the button", new Parameter("Button name", someIntValue));

None of these two variants get registered in debug view of firebase analytics, but the default events do.

What is the problem?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You should replace the spaces in the event names with underscores. I believe that you're not following the rules for event names:

Event names can be up to 40 characters long, may only contain alphanumeric characters and underscores ("_"), and must start with an alphabetic character. The "firebase_", "google_", and "ga_" prefixes are reserved and should not be used.

Try this way

 FirebaseAnalytics.LogEvent("get_gems_click : ", "get_gems_click", 1);
