# GA4 event data checking

If the event data shown in your SEOTesting test results doesn't match what you see in GA4 directly, the most common cause is a filter mismatch. This guide walks you through the specific filters you need to apply in GA4 to see an equivalent view, including the correct dimension, match type, and session source settings.

If you want to sense check the GA4 event data that is displayed in SEOTesting, against the event data in GA4, please ensure you have the correct filters applied in GA4.

1, If your test is run for a specific country, ensure this filter is applied in GA4

2, The Landing page + query string dimension should be used, with an "exactly matches" match type to filter on the URL.

3, Session source/medium should be set to "exactly matches" for either "google / organic" (default value when setting up the test), "Google / CPC", or "Google"
