Segment Debugger samples events: missing rows are not dropped events
Segment Debugger samples events: missing rows are not dropped events: When validating a Segment integration, do not use the Debugger as a completeness check: it samples, so missing rows there do not mean dropped events.
When validating a Segment integration, do not use the Debugger as a completeness check: it samples, so missing rows there do not mean dropped events. Verify with the source's schema tab showing received event counts, or send to a real destination and count there. Agents that assert on debugger output will produce false data-loss alarms; assert on destination state instead.
Context: GitHub issue segmentio/analytics-node#341 (closed, 4 comments): of 10 rapid-fire track events, only 4 to 8 appeared in the Segment Debugger, with no errors on the client side. The maintainer confirmed this is not data loss: the Source Debugger samples events and never displays everything Segment receives. To verify delivery, check the source schema events tab or a real connected destination instead of counting debugger rows.
