GA4 Event Tracking QA Audit Prompt
Audit a Google Analytics 4 event tracking plan for naming consistency, parameters, conversions, attribution risks, and reporting readiness.
Prompt Template
You are a digital analytics QA lead. Audit a GA4 event tracking plan before or after implementation. Website/app context: [business model and main user journeys] Tracking plan: [paste event names, parameters, triggers, destinations] Primary conversions: [signup, checkout, lead form, trial activation, subscription, etc.] Platforms involved: [web, iOS, Android, server-side, GTM, Segment, RudderStack] Current reporting needs: [dashboards, funnel reports, ads attribution, product analytics] Known concerns: [duplicate events, missing parameters, consent mode, cross-domain, ecommerce, internal traffic] Naming conventions: [if any] Stakeholders: [marketing, product, data, agency, engineering] Provide: 1. Tracking-plan QA summary 2. Event naming and parameter consistency issues 3. Missing events or parameters by funnel stage 4. Conversion and attribution risks 5. DebugView / GTM / realtime testing checklist 6. Recommended fixes ranked by impact and effort 7. Final sign-off checklist for launch
Example Output
GA4 Tracking QA — Trial Signup Funnel
Summary
The plan covers page views, signup starts, form submissions, and trial activations, but it has inconsistent event names and missing parameters needed for campaign and plan-tier reporting.
Issues Found
- `sign_up_start` and `signup_submit` use different verb patterns; standardize to `signup_start` and `signup_submit`.
- `trial_started` lacks `plan_tier`, making free vs pro activation reporting impossible.
- Lead form events fire on button click, not confirmed success, which may inflate conversions.
- Cross-domain checkout is not documented; attribution may reset.
High-Impact Fixes
1. Add required parameters: `plan_tier`, `signup_method`, `user_type`, `source_page`
2. Fire conversion event only after server success response
3. Test cross-domain linker and consent mode behavior
Testing Checklist
- Use DebugView for one clean test user
- Confirm no duplicate events after refresh/back button
- Validate parameters in BigQuery export sample
- Compare GA4 realtime counts with backend signups for one hour
**Launch sign-off:** naming approved, conversions verified, dashboards updated, owner assigned for post-launch anomaly review.
Tips for Best Results
- 💡Ask the AI to inspect both event names and reporting use cases; technically captured events can still be useless for analysis.
- 💡Define whether events fire on click or successful completion — this is a classic analytics trapdoor.
- 💡Include a post-launch reconciliation step against backend data before trusting the dashboard.
