Answer 1

In Podfile

pod 'Google/Analytics'

In YourFantasticProjectName-Bridging-Header.h

#import "Google/Analytics.h"

You don't need this

GGLContext.sharedInstance().configureWithError(&configureError)

You need to have a proper tracker

let gai = GAI.sharedInstance()
let tracker = gai.tracker(withTrackingId: "UA-12345678-1")

In order for live view to work in GA dashboard, you must track screen using GAIDictionaryBuilder and correct key kGAIScreenName

tracker.set(kGAIScreenName, value: "this is my screen")
let event = GAIDictionaryBuilder.createScreenView()
tracker?.send(event!.build() as! [NSObject: Any])

In the same vein, to track events, you need to use GAIDictionaryBuilder as it will create dictionary with correct GA keys, and GA likes correct keys

let event = GAIDictionaryBuilder.createEvent(withCategory: "category", action: "action", label: "level", value: NSNumber(value: 120))
tracker?.send(event!.build() as! [NSObject: Any])

It seems to work in the simulator too
