Everyone on my team is also having the same issue. No GA universal debugging despite seeing the GA universal collect calls in the network traffic.

Hi @clemenscito & @Harrybdo - Can either of you provide a URL I can replicate this on? I'm seeing UA traffic come in, even for 360 clients but I wonder if you have a specific setting/config on the GA property.

Harrybdo commented 1 year ago

@MisterPhilip I think the issue is specific to UA when the hits are sent as POST requests instead of GET requests due to request size. A lot of our clients sites send hits this way because we send a lot of data to GA. For example, https://www.collegeavestudentloans.com/. The initial page view works but if you click on an apply now button, you will see the event being sent in network traffic as a POST... but no omnibug event.

For us it has always worked for years and a few days it stopped working. As far as I am aware no one made changes to anything there.

MisterPhilip commented 1 year ago

I released an update earlier this week that split out GA4 and UA, which I suspect is what broke it. Let me dig into it.

MisterPhilip commented 1 year ago

Should be fixed; I checked against both of y'all's URLs and Omnibug was matching to the network panel. It may take the extension stores a day or two to fully roll out. Thanks for the report and details and sorry for the inconvenience!

Fantastic, thank you so much for the quick fix!

MisterPhilip commented 1 year ago
