Unity Analytics not validating
i have enabled analytics, and for some reason it wont validate any data (nothing shows up in the validating window under services -> analytics)
as you can see nothing happens when pressing play (neither when triggering an analytics-tracker), even though I enabled analytics, and i don't know why, please help
Hi there @Justin113D, I recently had the exact same issue you had too! Wondering if you ever managed to fix it?

This might be a reply for a pretty old post, but here's how I solved a problem that was much similar to this.
Yesterday, I received some help from Unity support about an issue about intermittent delays in the Validator! I was able to resolve my issue by waiting for around 2+ hours before logs came through to my Validator (in the Unity Editior & Analytics Dashboard).
Message from support referenced to the forum post here:
We are currently having some intermittent delays in the Validator. It is likely that you have integrated Analytics correctly and once the issue is resolved, you will see data correctly in your dashboard. There is a troubleshooting guide with some more details and some alternate methods of confirming your Analytics events are sending: https://forum.unity.com/threads/tro...-data-processing-no-data-in-validator.517488
So if you're having problems viewing logs from your Validator, check the forums to see if others are having the same issue as well, or wait awhile and check back with your game later (pressing "Play" in your Unity Editor sends analytics events to the Validator so be sure to try that).

I believe Validator was removed about Jan 2020. I enabled Analytics on my project but I am not able to see any data on the dashboard. What is the new way to setup Analytics?

There is some information that can be helpful in general for people trying to wrap their heads around the analytics in the link below. In general, I find that the time needed for data to show on the dashboard in the Event Manager/Validator varies greatly. Even though it says: "The Validator will only show events sent from Development Builds or the Editor, and happens instantaneously". That is not the case for me. Sometimes data goes in 15 mins, sometimes it takes two hours.
I wish there was a better way to check your custom events are working correctly. Waiting for 2 hours or more so see if it is working is far from acceptable.
