title: Android Firebase Analytics Custom Events Reporting in Console
body: <p>Accept my apologies in advance if this is the incorrect place to post this question as I am unsure what would be.</p>
  
  <p>What I am trying to accomplish is to record a custom even using Firebase analytics that produces a similar report in the Firebase console to their example of the <code>select_content</code> event. It is triggered as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    FirebaseAnalytics mFirebaseAnalytics = FirebaseAnalytics.getInstance(this);
      Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
      bundle.putString(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.ITEM_ID, "ID");
      bundle.putString(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.ITEM_NAME, "NAME");
      bundle.putString(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.CONTENT_TYPE, "image");
      mFirebaseAnalytics.logEvent(FirebaseAnalytics.Event.SELECT_CONTENT, bundle);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and more specifically the string after <code>FirebaseAnalytics.Param.CONTENT_TYPE</code> can be any value and will produce a report in the console as shown below:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zQ9s0.jpg"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zQ9s0.jpg" alt=""></a></p>
  
  <p>I create my own custom events as:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Bundle params2 = new Bundle();
  params2.putString(FirebaseAnalytics.Param.VALUE, "Google Play Games Sign out Button");
  mFirebaseAnalytics.logEvent("Main_Activity_Button_Pressed", params2);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and the report produced for this event shown below does not appear to take into account the value I have added.</p>

  <p>Is it possible to accomplish what I am trying to do, and if so what is the correct way to implement this?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Update</strong>: Seems this is not possible for testing purposes as I recently discovered this:<a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/83k67.jpg"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/83k67.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>which explains why my custom parameters do not appear in the console. </p>
