Data Mapping For GA4 Integration with Google Tag Manager

After importing Intelligems into your Google Tag Manager, it is important to make any updates and workspace changes for the tag to ensure that it runs perfectly. To identify any changes that need to be made, navigate to the "Workspace Changes" section of your homepage.

Any tags that need to be updated will begin with the phrase, "Update After Import". Once the necessary information has been updated for each tag, you will remove this phrase from the tag title. By deleting this phrase once the process is complete, it allows all future employees that work at your company to know that nothing else needs to be updated on this tag.
