Table Guide

What You Can Answer With This Table

  • How many times did a specific custom event fire, and how has that trended? — use event_name, count, group by event_date
  • What context did visitors submit, and which page view did it happen during? — query the data JSON payload and use page_view_event_id (learn more)

Before You Query

  • Required field: event_date
  • Custom event properties are flattened into queryable columns automatically when events are defined via the Custom Events Builder. For events not created via the builder, query properties from the raw JSON data payload.

When to Use a Different Table

  • Use Pixel Custom Conversions table when you need attribution of conversion events to channels, campaigns, ad sets, or ads. The Pixel Custom Events table is for raw custom event fires and the full data payload.
