The events can be created for both web and app data.

Only letters, numbers and underscores may be used when naming. The name must start with a letter and be case sensitive. Apart from the event name, the conditions for triggering the new event must be defined. To do this, the exact event name of the existing event must be entered as well as any parameters that restrict the original event. Assuming we want to create our own event called &ldquo;page_view_blog&rdquo;, which is triggered when our blog page is visited, this can be configured as shown in the following screenshot:<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-2-beispiel-event-konfiguration-22page_view_blog22-1024x785.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-2-beispiel-event-konfiguration-22page_view_blog22-1024x785.png 1024w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-2-beispiel-event-konfiguration-22page_view_blog22-300x230.png 300w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-2-beispiel-event-konfiguration-22page_view_blog22-768x588.png 768w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-2-beispiel-event-konfiguration-22page_view_blog22.png 1189w\" alt=\"Beispiel Event Konfiguration page_view_blog\" width=\"800\" height=\"613\">The Create Event feature in the admin area of the GA4 Property, source: e-dialog<\/p>\n<p>The parameters of the original event can be easily adopted. It is also possible to adapt these or define new parameters with additional information.<\/p>\n<h2>Which Universal Analytics goals can I recreate with the Create Event feature?<\/h2>\n<p>In Universal Analytics, goals can be created based on four different &ldquo;goal types&rdquo;: Goal, Duration, Event, and Pages\/Screens per Session. There is no dedicated goal creation feature in Google Analytics. However, that doesn&rsquo;t mean you can&rsquo;t define your own conversions. With the &ldquo;Create Event&rdquo; tool, for example, all Universal Analytics goals that are based on events or a target URL can be recreated. Provided that the same data also flows into Google Analytics 4. For example, you can trigger a &ldquo;generate_lead&rdquo; event when users reach the thank you page of your contact form on your website. This event can then easily be marked as a conversion or goal by activating the toggle in the admin area under &ldquo;Events&rdquo;.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-3-ein-einlaufendes-event-als-conversion-markieren-1024x542.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-3-ein-einlaufendes-event-als-conversion-markieren-1024x542.png 1024w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-3-ein-einlaufendes-event-als-conversion-markieren-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-3-ein-einlaufendes-event-als-conversion-markieren-768x406.png 768w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bild-3-ein-einlaufendes-event-als-conversion-markieren.png 1316w\" alt=\"Ein einlaufendes Event als Conversion markieren\" width=\"800\" height=\"423\">Mark an incoming event as a conversion, source: e-dialog<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>This Google Analytics 4 feature is easy to use and offers many options for creating specific events based on incoming data.
