Absolutely, you can manage Google Tag Manager (GTM) in your React application so it only runs when and where you need it, without needing to remove or disable the actual GTM script.

To unload a script like GTM, you’d typically manipulate the HTML and this can add unnecessary complexity to your app. Overriding script namespaces could lead to… Read more

It’s quite possible that this is happening because gtag is ignoring the hash part of the URL when you’re using HashRouter. It’s not something I’ve seen explicitly stated in the docs, but from what I’ve observed, as well as a few other sources I found (you can check them out here and here), it does seem to be the case.

Hey, I totally feel you! I’ve had the exact same issue with GA4 data. After a ton of research, what I found is that you can actually select the column and then go to the transformation tab and click on ‘Analyse JSON’. This will give you an option to expand the column.

But, I won’t lie – despite doing this, dealing with the resulting header… Read more

Sure thing, here’s the scoop:

So, it seems that the key to making your AppFlow connection with GA4 work might actually be hiding in the Google Analytics Admin API. We too faced the same hiccup you’re currently dealing with, and we got some insight from the folks over at Amazon.

Here’s the thing: When you’re setting up your GA4 connector, you… Read more

Absolutely, I understand your struggle. What’s usually the case with these kind of error messages is that some dimensions and metrics just don’t play well together. It’s like trying to mix oil and water, they just don’t combine. This is usually because the data needed to generate the report across these dimensions and metrics simply doesn’t… Read more

Hey there, folks! So, here’s my dilemma: I’m building this SQL query where I need to grid all my GA4 event data based on the session ID. Super simple, right? I thought so too, until now.

When I fire off this query, the resulting table gives me session ID as a completely separate column – not nestled within an array for event parameters as you’d…

Hey, I’ve been wrestling with an issue in my reports where client_ids are being used instead of unique user_ids. This has been messing up my user count. I’ve set up GTM in my single-page Angular app, where users enter only through a login screen that triggers a ‘login’ event in the dataLayer. The configuration tag is set to fire on this event and… Read more

It could be possible that the transactions are being sent twice from your website to Google Analytics, hence the duplicates. This could occur if, for example, a user refreshes the order confirmation page, causing the data layer to be reshared. To resolve this issue, you may need to implement a solution that prevents the data layer from being… Read more

Sure, let me explain it as simply as possible.

When you are using Google Tag Manager and you see a value in the data layer that you want to use (like sale price, for example), you can manually link this to your tag.

Just imagine that you’re processing a purchase. You’d first click on the custom event for the purchase. In the data layer, you’ll… Read more

It sounds like the problem could be arising from setting up the Google Tag Manager (GTM) incorrectly for your properties. In GA4, each property should have its own distinct ‘Measurement ID’, which should be used in your GTM tag for each corresponding website. If you are using the same GTM container for all properties, you may be inadvertently… Read more

Hey, so I’ve been working on creating a specific report for my client. It was supposed to show the name of the PDF file and how many times it got downloaded on the website. Yet, I’m running into some trouble. I was expecting the total event count to match the number of files downloaded, but that’s not the case. For instance, even if there are only… Read more

Unfortunately, as the query and data table are blurred out for privacy reasons, it’s challenging to provide an exact solution without knowing the structure of the tables and how you’re calculating each metric. However, I can suggest a few potential reasons and strategies you may want to explore to identify the source of discrepancy.

Firstly, you… Read more
