Events feed

The Events page shows recent activity in a property. It is useful for verifying instrumentation, inspecting custom events, and understanding what happened inside individual sessions.

Events feed grouped by session

Session grouping​

Events are grouped by session, with the newest sessions first. Within each session, events are ordered so recent activity is easy to inspect.

Session grouping helps connect pageviews, engagement, custom events, and backend events into one timeline.

Day picker​

Use the day picker to inspect a specific day. The selected day follows the property or account timezone used by the dashboard.

Event types​

The feed can include:

  • Pageview events from web routes and mobile screens.
  • Engagement events such as clicks, scrolls, input focus, active time, and lifecycle pings.
  • Custom events sent with customEvent(...).
  • Navigation events when route changes are captured separately.
  • Backend events sent from server-side SDKs.

Human-readable details​

Nexly formats common event details into readable subtitles, such as scroll depth, clicked text, or navigation destination.

Open the JSON view when you need the raw event context, built-in data, or custom data payload.

Instrumentation checks​

Use the Events page after adding a new SDK or custom event:

  1. Trigger the action in your app.
  2. Open the Events page for the same property.
  3. Confirm the event name, path or screen, client source, and custom properties.
  4. If the event is missing, check custom event approval, ingest filters, allowed origins, and pause state.
