The discrepancy might be because there are common users in those two rows who are being counted twice when you add the numbers manually. Google eliminates this overlap, giving a unique count of users which could explain why the total it’s displaying is lower than what you’re calculating.

Google Analytics Data API should theoretically support multi-byte characters such as Japanese without any issue. However, the “Bad Request” error you’re seeing could be due to a number of reasons. Crucially, it might not necessarily be related to the use of Japanese characters. It could be something related to the structure or syntax of your request. Check the format of your request, making sure the event name is properly encoded and escaped as necessary. You should also check your request parameters as well as the API version you are using. Also make sure you’re using the correct authentication token. A good step would be testing your request with English characters to see if the issue persists. If the problem continues, it would be advisable to reach out to Google’s support team to help diagnose the specific issue.

There can be several reasons why the data isn’t showing up as expected in Google Analytics 4. First, ensure there’s no issue with the formatting or typing of the purchase event that you are trying to track. Remember to use correct field names as per the GA4 documentation since they are case sensitive.

Additionally, verify that the gtag id in your analytics snippet matches the one in your GA4 property. If there is a discrepancy, it could lead to the data being sent to the wrong property.

Another possibility is a delay in data appearing in the reports, which can take up to 24-48 hours.

If everything seems correct, have a look at your website with the ‘Google Tag Assistant’ extension, which helps debug your tags. Alternatively, you can also use the ‘Realtime’ report in GA4 to test if your events are being sent correctly.

Lastly, check to see if any sort of ad-blocker or browser settings are preventing the gtag script from running correctly, as these could interfere with your tracking.

It seems like the error you are encountering is related to a network issue when trying to connect to the GA4 analytics API. To resolve this issue, you can try setting the GrpcAdapter property of the BetaAnalyticsDataClientBuilder to use the REST HTTP/1.1 transport protocol. Here is a code snippet showing how to do this:

`csharp
var client = new BetaAnalyticsDataClientBuilder
{
GrpcAdapter = RestGrpcAdapter.Default
}.Build();
`

This configuration change should help resolve the connectivity problem. For more details and information, you can refer to the official documentation on using the REST HTTP/1.1 transport protocol with the GA4 analytics API: [link](https://googleapis.dev/dotnet/Google.Analytics.Data.V1Beta/latest/#using-the-rest-http11-transport)

Give this approach a try and let me know if you need further assistance!

Hey there, I’ve found a solution to this. It may sound far too simple, but all I had to do was sign out of the app and then sign back in again (or just refresh the access token). It worked like a charm.
