VAIS:Commerce Clarification on shopping-cart-page-view mapping to begin_checkout

Hi all,

In the documentantion it’s stated that the shopping-cart-page-view event is equivalent to the begin_checkout event.

However, I’m a bit confused because the documentation also defines begin_checkout as the moment when the user starts the checkout process. On the other hand, shopping-cart-page-view represents the action of viewing the cart, which happens before initiating checkout.

In Google Analytics 4 there is a clear distinction between view_cart and begin_checkout, and they are treated as separate events.

So my question is should we import then view_cart event instead of begin_checkout or?

Thanks for your help!

After verifying with the product team, I confirm it should be the view_cart. I’ll open a bug for our documentation.
