Detailed Setup Guide

Info

NOTE: Aspenware Commerce has added the ability to load Adobe Analytics credentials for resort customers who use both reporting platforms. Including these credentials will enable Adobe Analytics to connect and pull data from the same tags that GA4 will leverage. In essence, users of both platforms will have access to two reporting interfaces.

Note

IMPORTANT: Which file should I import?

There are multiple Tags and Triggers json files available for import.

8.22.22 Tags and Triggers File

The file dated 8.22.22 contains the standard events and tags suggested by Google for initial GA4 deployment.

3.7.23 Tags and Triggers FileThe second file, dated 3.7.23, includes additionaltags and events, including events that capture account creation and login activities.

6.9.23 Tags and Triggers File

The file dated 6.9.23 is stripped of all the Universal Analytics tags.

Which file should you import? 

If you are configuring your GTM account for the first time, select the most current version of our tags and triggers file.

  • If you already imported a previous tags and triggers file, and have not added any customization, import the most current version of our Tags and Triggers json file.

  • If you have customized your tags and triggers file, importing our latest json file will overwrite your customization. Instead, use the most current file to compare your existing json to our new file, and add any new events/tags manually, using the same process you did when you customized the file.

  • The GA4 Configuration & Page View tag may vary depending on setup. Use preview mode in GTM to test the integration and make sure you are collecting the correct page view data.

  • The GA4 Configuration & Page View tag may not be needed if you already have the tag in your GTM container. Multiple GA4 Configuration & Page View tags could cause duplicate page views and events.
