    uhm, why add 2 variables, a trigger and a tag in GTM, instead of just console.log the dataLayer after doing a dataLayer push? Just like you did for the custom event.

    Kevin. Great video - I am wondering if there is a way to filter out "email" entries form the "Session source / medium? I ask because it looks like you can only show up to 20 column groups and when we are looking at monthly date range (or wider date range), there are not enough columns for all of the "source / medium" and email entries take up quite a bit.

I checked everything you said and the devices not set is literally like 95% of the traffic, but the operating system doesn't seem suspicious because it says iOS. cities don't look suspicious either its just an area we don't want to target for our ads the overwhelming amount of traffic comes from there, which is Miami. is there anything i can do about this? i think it might be bots because of the engagement time and the devices being not set please help.
