This guide shows you how to set up recommended events and custom events on your website using the Google tag (gtag.js) or Google Tag Manager. You don't need to set up automatically collected and enhanced measurement events.

See your events in Analytics
You can see your events and their parameters using the Realtime and DebugView reports. Note that the DebugView report requires some additional configuration before you can use the report. These two reports show you the events users trigger on your website as the events are triggered.
