GTM + GA4 Ecommerce tracking

Hi!

I have implemented google tag manager and google analytics 4 on my website and have some tracking running. I cant seem get  common e-commerce data. I have implemented "view_item" and "add_to_cart" tracking but it wont show in GA4. I have created a custom event in GTM. But in the preview mode I cant find any such event firing. I can se purchases though, both in the GTM preview mode and in the GA4 data. 

I have Squarespace Commerce Basic Plan.

I'm pretty new at this and followed a youtube tutorial. I think it was this one: 

The current integration for GA4 is very poor.

Standard page_view events aren't being passed over and for the "events" they passover like purchase they are missing many parameters you'd expect to see in GA4 ecommerce reporting. As well the attribution is broken with all events reporting as direct (event with referral exclusions configured and added as domains in the data stream) Some pageview include a page title but are missing the page_location) 

If you are looking to track where users are coming from acuity doesn't seem to be the platform to use.

Thank you! Sad to hear that this is the case. Suppose there isn't a workaround?

You could attempt to do it with GTM for view_item and add_to_cart by grabbing the meta data that seems to appear for products and create a simple item array and pass that along. 

I also see this JSON in the html code which you can try and grab as variables to reuse in GTM.
