    I know this has been asked many times, but I was unable to get custom events working.
    I have set up a custom event, and I am firing from script.

    I know analytics is setup and connected because standard events are working fine.
    I also know that this code is firing because my Debug.Log is present in the console.
    I have waited 48 hours and the custom events have not shown up.
    Is there any other step I am missing?

    Yes a common question unfortunately. You are using the legacy Analytics syntax. You'll want to use the UGS Analytics syntax, and make sure you initialize Analytics in Start or Awake also

    *Facepalm*
    I followed the modern sdk instructions for setup and connections, but followed the legacy instructions for custom events.
    Thanks for clarifying!
    Custom events are working now.
