    Sure, let me simplify this for you. The Google Analytics 4 (GA4) measurement protocol is a bit stricter compared to its predecessor. Certain things like a user’s language code can’t be set through this protocol. That’s why it’s showing up as “not set”.

    Right now, there isn’t a workaround to this within the confines of the measurement protocol. To get these kinds of data, you’d have to use the provided SDKs, not the direct measurement protocol.

    Oh, and there’s this survey from Google where you can give them feedback about their measurement protocol. It could be a way to request them to loosen the restrictions a bit.
