# Verify your setup

> See your first event, and fix it when nothing shows up.

## 1. Trigger one tracked action locally

Local events are flagged `isDebug: true` automatically on `localhost` and when `NODE_ENV=development`.

## 2. Open the Setup page

In the dashboard, open your app’s **Setup** page: it shows the first event as soon as it arrives. In other views, turn on the **debug** toggle to see local events.

## Nothing shows up?

- Look for a `[shipabase]` warning in the browser console: an invalid key or event name.
- In the Network tab, look for `POST /v1/events` returning `202`.
- Check that `init` runs in the browser, once, before `trackEvent`. Calls before `init` are ignored.
- Events are sent every 5 seconds, or when the tab is hidden: wait a few seconds.
