What version do I need use in order to attend new GA requirements?

[ghost]

Hello there,

According to this GA page, every app available in Play Store that uses Firebase Google Analytics should be actually using the Google Analytics 4 property implementation until February 15th 2022.

What version from this package should I be using to match this requirement?

Hi there! I don't see any thing on the page you linked that references a need to update software at all, it appears to be administrative on the firebase console side.

Have you performed those steps, and were there any issues completing the process?
I checked my various projects and none of them displayed the ability to begin the upgrade, following their instructions to see that prompt, so I'm unsure personally.

I may only assume that if migration is happening now, current versions make it possible, so my best advice is to use our current versions here without overriding the underlying SDK versions

Hi @mikehardy, thank you for coming back so quickly. I saw this instruction when we were doing the administrative effort, but I guess we can ignore it right?

Yeah I saw that when I test-drove it just now looking for information to answer you.

Those dependencies are exactly what this module does for you, and at the most current versions (in general), so you may ignore them, or stated differently, you may be confident they are handled for you by this module

	implementation platform("com.google.firebase:firebase-bom:${ReactNative.ext.getVersion("firebase", "bom")}")
	implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics"

react-native-firebase/packages/analytics/RNFBAnalytics.podspec

Lines 36 to 50 in d0d9bd8

	# Firebase dependencies
	if defined?($RNFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport)
	Pod::UI.puts "#{s.name}: Using Firebase/AnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport pod in place of default Firebase/Analytics"
	# Releasing as non-breaking change as it is optional but it raises minimum requirements, validate just in case
	if (Gem::Version.new(firebase_sdk_version) < Gem::Version.new("7.11.0"))
	raise "Firebase/AnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport requires firebase-ios-sdk 7.11.0 or greater."
	end
	s.dependency 'Firebase/AnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport', firebase_sdk_version
	else
	Pod::UI.puts "#{s.name}: Using default Firebase/Analytics with Ad Ids. May require App Tracking Transparency. Not allowed for Kids apps."
	Pod::UI.puts "#{s.name}: You may set variable `$RNFirebaseAnalyticsWithoutAdIdSupport=true` in Podfile to use analytics without ad ids."
	s.dependency 'Firebase/Analytics', firebase_sdk_version
	end

Note our BoM is 29.0.0 right now and Pods release is 8.9.1

Thank you for the clarification, I'll update the lib to the latest stable version just to be on the safe side. Have a nice day!
