How to view outbound clicks in Google Analytics 4 reports

Ғылым және технология

Google Analytics 4 is capable of automatically tracking outbound link clicks. But to view that data, you will need to create a custom report with explorations.
In this video, I will show you how to do that.

The message I get is ' No data for this combination of segments, values, filters, and date range. Try editing the variables or settings or remove them.' I can see data for last 30 days/7 days/28 days but the data doesn't seem accurate. Any idea about this issue? Thanks very much!

    Hi! I created a free from report on GA4 Exploration. I tested it in June and it does track clicks on outbound links. Recently, we added a new outbound link on the website, and now the free form report does not seem to reflect the clicks on that new outbound link. Any chance there's an update on Outbound Link Clicks tracking that I missed? Or is there something else I'm missing here?

    This is so helpful! It looks like using Explorations, however, you can only see about 60 days of data, even using the "custom" setting. Is there a way to get data on link clicks for a greater time period?

    I've attempted to do this in a lot of ways but somehow my Whatsapp clicks will ALWAYS show up in Click and Outbound Link tags fired, never the specific Whatsapp tags I made. Debug Mode in Analytics only shows clicks on the real time view, the same for phone clicks which fall into the TEL tag. Is this Analytics 4 new normality just fresh out of the oven or am I doing something wrong?
