Troubleshooting: Google Tag Assistant Errors

To identify and resolve issues, accessing the debug mode in Google Tag Manager is essential. This tool acts as a "black box," recording everything that happens between your site and Google Tag Manager. Although you are not an expert, by following these steps, you should be able to finalise the integration.

Step-by-Step Access Guide:

  1. Open your Workspace in Google Tag Manager.

  2. Click the blue Preview button located in the top right corner.

  3. Enter the full URL of your website and click Connect.

  4. The site will open in a new tab. Keep the Tag Assistant Connected tab open to view the technical data described in the steps below.

Debug Screen Structure:

  • Left column (timeline): shows the history of events (e.g., Container Loaded, Click, Purchase).

  • Center panel (tags): shows which Tags were activated (Tags Fired) and which were not (Tags Not Fired).
