    I’m glad to hear that you found a solution! Yes, it turns out that Google Analytics 4 (GA4) requires events to be part of a session for them to be logged. By sending a ‘session_start’ event with ‘ga_session_number’ and ‘ga_session_id’ properties, you’re creating a new session, and any events that occur during this session will be recorded properly. This is different from previous versions of Google Analytics and is something to keep in mind when implementing GA4.
