Logging custom events in the Firebase Analytics console (Swift)

Question

I'm trying to log custom events for my location rating app (Swift). After looking through examples it looks like you give attributes a value similar to a JSON database. I still haven't seen the event named logged in the analytics console (it's been about a week).It doesn't have any debug errors. Here is the instance:

FIRAnalytics.logEventWithName("Ratings", Parameters[
    "rating": (indexPath.row + 1)

Any advice?

Did you try to turn on the debug mode by using the argument -FIRAnalyticsDebugEnabled? It should show you whether the events were logged successfully. – Chlorous

Answer 1

Its really late but it may help someone

 Analytics.logEvent("Ratings", parameters: [
        "rating" : (indexPath.row + 1)
        ])

FIRAnalytics is replaced with Analytics and logEventWithName is replaced with logEvent

Answer 2

The syntax for logging a custom event in Swift would be:

FIRAnalytics.logEventWithName("Ratings", parameters: [
  "rating": (indexPath.row + 1)
])

Make sure that part of your code is getting executed by setting a break-point. Perhaps it's not being run.

Forgot to put that on here, but I did close the arguments there the way you showed. Still am not getting anything. – Accomplished

Answer 3

import FirebaseAnalytics

Example code:

Analytics.logEvent("share_image", parameters: [
  "name": name as NSObject,
  "full_text": text as NSObject,
])

Answer 4

Follow the steps:-

import FirebaseAnalytics

Add the logevent where you want it to trigger (Tested on latest iOS 17),

Analytics.logEvent("Ratings", parameters: ["rating": (indexPath.row + 1)])

Also you can edit the scheme and add argument (-FIRAnalyticsDebugEnabled) to test in debug mode. Go on Firebase -> Analytics dropdown -> Debug View. Here you can map the debug events.:-

PS:- It takes around 24hours or less to reflect on the events.
