    The issue you are facing primarily signifies how GA4 operates with custom dimensions. GA4 uses a data model that deduplicates events, dimensions, and other parameters if the data appears the same, resulting in fewer rows in a report than the number of actual sent events. That’s likely why RunReportRequest is showing a row_count of 1 in lieu of 2. It recognizes the two distinct events you’re sending as one due to similar data, leading to deduplication. As both events share similar parameters, GA4 treats them as a single event, therefore, leading to an incomplete number of rows. Try to create a unique identifier for each event, this could be a timestamp or a unique event ID, to prevent GA4 from deduplicating the events. By doing this, each event is treated separately resulting in the desired number of rows.
