Hi @Chandu-Bantupalli,

Please update the issue's title and description to better describe the feature you are looking for or the problem you have faced.

Currently the plugin provides the following features.

What type of events do you wish to track and what are the functions you are missing? Do you think that such functionality should be included in this or in a separate plugin?

Hi @elena-p
As we have AppEventsLogger in the Facebook Android SDK which extends appevents package, this can log events occurring in the app into facebook analytics.
I could not find such functions in the nativescript-facebook plugin. I have tried to make changes in the existing plugins but could not make it execute.
please anyone could help me

Hi @Chandu-Bantupalli,

I have marked the issue as a feature request, but cannot commit to a time when it will be available.

Meanwhile, we love pull requests and we would highly appreciate it, if you decide to implement the analytics functionality. You can create a manager (check login-manager for example) and implement it using AppEventsLogger for android and FBSDKAppEvents for ios.
