You’re correct in surmising that it may be due to not specifying exactly which Google Analytics property you wish to send the event to. When you call
gtag('event',...)
, it sends that event to all configured properties, hence the double reporting. To send an event to a specific property, you should use the following syntax:gtag('config', 'GA_MEASUREMENT_ID');
followed by your desiredgtag('event',...)
. Remember to replace ‘GA_MEASUREMENT_ID’ with your actual Google Analytics Measurement ID. This will make sure that the event is sent only to the specified property.
