By default, we track a wide range of events in Google Analytics. Events measure different actions carried out by a visitor: for example, how often a Foleon Doc is shared, how many times a video is viewed, or how often an overlay is opened.
⚠️ On July 1, 2023, Google Analytics 4 (GA4) replaced Google’s Universal Analytics (UA). If you still want to analyze historic data, Universal Analytics data and its interface will be accessible until July 1, 2024. If you’re looking for more information about Google Analytics 4 events, learn more here.

Where to find events and how they’re structured
In Google Analytics, you’ll find events in Analytics at Behaviour Events Overview.
Events consist of 3 dimensions:
-
Event category
-
Event action
-
Event label
An example of a category is videos. The action may be playing, and the label indicates the event’s context (e.g. which video is played, the URL of an outbound click, or which hotspot is opened).
