Overview

The Live Events page lets you monitor and inspect incoming user events on your website in real time (over a rolling 14-day window). Whether you’re troubleshooting experiment exposures or verifying conversions, this tool gives you instant visibility into what’s happening in your A/B testing setup.

Accessible under Insights > Live events, this page displays events with key metadata and supports filtering, searching, and deep inspection through detailed event views.

  • Project selector (dropdown)
  • Event table: Displays timestamped logs with the following columns:
    • Date and time
    • Event type (e.g., CONVERSION, EXPERIMENT)
    • User ID
    • Event properties (as raw JSON snippet)
  • Refresh button: Manually update the list with the latest events
  • Last update timestamp: Shows when the data was last fetched

By default, this table displays events from the past 14 days and is updated automatically in real time. Events are listed in reverse chronological order.

Refreshing data

Click the Refresh button (top right) to manually reload data. This is useful if you’re expecting new events and want to force an update.

Use cases

  • Debugging: Identify issues in real-time by searching for user IDs or goal IDs
  • QA Testing: Validate that experiments and conversions are firing correctly
  • Monitoring: Watch traffic as it happens during key campaigns or rollout.
