It appears that you are having some difficulty with receiving accurate reporting of your in-app search events in Google Analytics 4 (GA4) despite proper setting up the event tracking code. You have observed that your ‘search’ event appears in the debug view and real-time view, but not in the regular reports, and the issue remains despite it being known that GA4 sometimes takes 12 – 24 hours to reflect updates in the reports.
The problem might be GA4’s processing logic or possibly an internal bug. While you might expect data to be shown in real time, it’s important to know that processing speeds can vary, leading to some inconsistencies in report updates, especially for custom events. Setting up the event in the GA4 dashboard and waiting for some time might resolve this issue. If not, it’s also possible there might be an undiscovered issue with the Nuxt gtag.js module you’re using with your Vue 3 + Nuxt stack. In that case, you might want to connect with the developers behind it, providing them with your observations to guide their investigation.
