No values is getting shown after logging custom event using Facebook Analytics

I'm using Facebook Analytics in my app and wants to analyse which 'signup method' from Facebook and Email/Password users are using more.

For this I followed the docs here.

Here's what I tried:

FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(getApplicationContext());
AppEventsLogger.activateApp(this);
logger = AppEventsLogger.newLogger(this);

Bundle bundle1 = new Bundle();
bundle1.putString("methodUsed", "email_password");
logger.logEvent("signup_method", bundle1);

Though the event got shown in the 'Events' tab of the dashboard, the space under the 'Value' row is empty which should have been "facebook".

Please let me know if I'm doing anything incorrectly here and how can I get the value also shown in the dashboard?

Solution

  • Parameters won't be shown on an event's page under the events tab.

    For your use case, you'll want to look in the Breakdowns tab. Create a breakdown for your "signup_method" event, and under "Breakdown 1", select "methodUsed" as your breakdown parameter. Then click Save, and you should see a breakdown of how many people used each signup method.
