Some people may encounter that they have done event tracking and can track it normally during debugging, but they cannot see the event in Google Analytics 4 Reports.

Suggestion: Check back in a few days.
Data Thresholds
If Google Signal is turned on, there are few data and no data thresholds are exceeded, in order to protect user privacy, GA4 will not display some data. Read more：Understanding Data Thresholds in Google Analytics 4
Suggestion：Select 「Device-based」 for 「Reporting Identity」.
GTM is Not Released
If you configure this event in GTM, the Preview is normal, but it is not released, which may also result in no data.
Suggestion: Check if GTM has not been released
Data Filters
If you enable Data Filters and filter your own traffic, events will naturally not appear in the GA4 report.
Suggestion: Check Data Filters
Browser plug-in blocks GA4
If there is a browser plug-in that blocks GA4, the event will not be visible in GA4.
Suggestion: Check if there are any requests sent to GA4 in the Network in the browser developer tools, and filter with “v=2”. If you see requests starting with “collect”, it means that GA4 is tracking normally.
