Is there a good way to inspect in GA4 if we're getting "experiment_viewed" events? I don't have data for my experiment yet, but I did only just deploy it to prod after the deploy preview, but I also don't see any gtag requests that mention experiment viewed

In GA, in any of the Events sections, look for the
experiment_viewed
event (or whatever you called it).

Yup, found it eventually
the Realtime Reports was helpful for validating that we were getting any
the issue was I was setting anonymous_id not id in the attributes
after changing the property name, experiments started being assigned
wish the docs were a bit more didactic about that rather than being open ended about “you can set whatever makes sense here”

Thanks for the feedback. We're in the process of making the set up for GA easier, both in the app and in the docs, so this is good to hear. It is a little open ended because it depends in part on how you set up your data source identifiers and then what you choose in your experiment set up. Happy you figured it out 🥳

Also happy I finally figured out custom events, so now I have a "navigate_to_sign_up" custom event for when they click the link to navigate to our admin panel signup
