Data Tag/Data Client

Data Tag and Data Client were created to send data from the Google Tag Manager web container to the server container. There are two ways to use this tool: send data layer variables or send any other information via custom parameters that exist on your website. Besides, Data Client can retrieve and store all of this information on its server container event data.

Sending Data From the Google Tag Manager Web Container to the Server Container

In this article, I want to show you how to use Data Tag. This custom tag sends parameters from the Google Tag Manager Web Container to the Server Container.
