firebase_analytics sends only string event parameters #7025

Closed saveKenny closed 3 years ago

saveKenny commented 3 years ago

I'm developing a Flutter application and I'm sending event analytics using firebase_analytics package. I'm sending custom params with my analytics as the following:

My code:

    final FirebaseAnalytics analytics = FirebaseAnalytics();

    void onGroupCreate(String groupId, double totalInvites, bool isStatus) {
          analytics.logEvent(
            name: "create_group",
            parameters: <String, dynamic>{
              'user_id': globals.user.userId,
              'group_id': groupId,
              'total_invites': totalInvites,
              'is_status': isStatus
            },
          );
        }

I have added GA Custom definitions, based on my params. But I can only see String analytics (double and bool params aren't shown).

What am I doing wrong? Why GA accepts only String params using firebase_analytics package?

@markusaksli-nc According to Firebase support team: However, since your ??parameters with ?string ?data type as values are shown in the report, it is safe to assume that there's no issue in your implementation. To give some insights regarding custom dimensions and metrics, do note that custom dimensions refer to text-type parameters, while metrics refer to number-type parameters. So before logging these parameters, you have to register accordingly the ?string type parameters as custom dimensions and ?integer ?(double/long) type parameters as custom metrics in the Custom Definitions page for them to appear in the report. As for your boolean type parameters, you can register them as custom dimensions. It will depend on your use case and how you indicate your boolean values (e.g. "True" or "False", "Yes" or "No"). You can check this article to learn more.

It seems that the firebase_analytics package example is misleading since you are sending boolean parameter instead of string.

markusaksli-nc commented 3 years ago

So is the issue that your custom metrics are not working through the plugin or that the example is misleading by supplying a bool value with a boolean instead of a string?

saveKenny commented 3 years ago

Yes the example is misleading so I have opened a pull request. Thanks for the support

markusaksli-nc commented 3 years ago

Thanks, I'll label this to track it until the PR gets merged
