Possible to remove ecommerce_event from being reported as revenue on Firebase Console (iOS)


When we started using Fabric we created an ecommerce_purchase event to track and report on all in app purchases.

We then implemented Firebase. We continued to use the ecommerce_purchase event because firebase was not reporting iOS in app purchases yet.

Now Firebase does report "some" of the in app purchases, but not yet all of them (subscription renewals are a large part of our revenue, and not yet handled by Firebase).

The ecommerce_purchase event is still reporting correctly, but our issue is the console now double reports quite a bit due to the revenue numbers automatically combining the ecommerce_purchase event, as well as the firebase automatically tracked in_app_purchase event.

Long story short... is there a way to exclude one of these events from the revenue numbers reported by Firebase in the console?

Thanks!


Solution

  • There's no way to exclude the events in the reporting. What you can do is to export your analytics data to BigQuery and perform custom analysis there. Follow the instructions here to link Firebase to BigQuery.
