Hi, I am new to Piwik Pro. I am trying to collect data via data layer event in Typescript.

```auto
public push(category: string, action: string, value: string, eventName: string) {

		window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || []; // Initialize dataLayer if it doesn't exist

		const eventData = {
			event: eventName,
			category: category,

			action: action,
			value: value
		};

		window.dataLayer.push(eventData);

		console.log('pushed event to dataLayer:', window.dataLayer); // Log the pushed data

		window._paq.push(['trackEvent', category, action, eventName, value]); // Track the event in Piwik

	}

```

In debug mode, I can see the tags being fired but still I cannot see any custom event in real time dashboard

What else can I check? I am stuck.

Hi Enzo,

Do you see the event you’re looking for in tracker debugger?  
Here’s how to find it: [How do I find my session in the tracker debugger? | Piwik PRO help center](https://help.piwik.pro/support/questions/how-do-i-find-my-session-in-the-tracker-debugger/)

Best,  
Oliwer

Wow, didn’t know that there is a Tracker Debugger. Now I can see the broken events. Also didn’t know the value field is only accepting number value.

Kinda gets lost on the Piwik documentation for beginner. Thanks
