Taggrs Integrationa

Taggrs is a server-side solution that allows you to deploy your GTM container in a more efficient way, improving performance and reducing the impact of ad blockers.

Create a Taggrs Account

If you do not have one, create a Taggrs account here. Once you have an account, follow the steps below to set up your server-side container.

Create a Taggrs Server Side Container

  1. At left menu, click on Containers
  2. Click on + Add container
  3. Set your Company Name
  4. Set your website index URL (e.g., https://yourdomain.com)
  5. Select the nearest Server location
  6. Click on Continue to proceed with the setup.

  1. Set your Container configuration code
  2. Set a subdomain for your server-side container (e.g., metrics.yourdomain.com)
  3. Be sure that Use a TAGGRS subdomain instead is disabled
  4. Click on Create container to create the container.

Info

  • To prevent detection by advanced ad blockers that often target subdomains like gtm, stape, taggrs, or similars, consider using different, less predictable subdomains for your integration.
  • The Domain name is the value to set up on module configuration GA4 tab, Server Container URL input field.

Setup Custom Domain

  1. Set up the A records and add it to your domain DNS settings.
  2. Click on Validate container and wait for confirmation.

Info

The Verification process may take a few minutes, depending on your DNS provider.

Server Container URL

The Server Container URL is crucial for sending events to your server-side container and enabling the Tag Assistant feature in GTM, which helps with debugging and testing your site.

Based on the previous configuration screenshot, the Server Container URL for this example is: https://metricstp.reactioncode.com

Set this URL in the module configuration GA4 tab, Server Container URL input field, and in the GTM Container Settings in the Server Container URLs input field.

Info

Make sure the URL does not end with a slash. Both the GA4 Module Configuration and GTM Container Settings must use the exact same Server Container URL.
