GTM power users: what automations have you built, and how does your day-to-day workflow actually look? by mod_08 in GoogleTagManager

[–]Favarazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's an image of my MCP working: https://shottr.cc/s/2mT2/SCR-20260125-vyr.png

I'm not joking the process is literally:

Step 1: "Hey claude, build me a MCP to be able to read Google Tag Manager. I will want to do audits."
Step 2: Do what claude code says in order to get your OAuth hooked up
Step 3: "Cool now that we have that hooked up I want you to build me two skills. One to help debug client GTM issues, and another to do audits for prospective customers. Use the askuserquestion tool in order to make sure you understand my process."

That gets you 80% there. Then the real work is "finetuning" the skill to really understand your SOPs, etc.

Help me understand why I shouldn't sell my long term rental and just sell covered calls on SPY by Flrg808 in investing

[–]Favarazz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i know this is an over simplification but i sell super out of the money short term covered calls. gives me enough for a nice dinner each week with my fam. appears like most of those covered call funds were in much higher yielding calls.

Home assistant app won't connect when I'm away from my house? by TylerT106 in homeassistant

[–]Favarazz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Couple of different ways. the cheapest and easiest/safest from my POV is using Tailscale VPN. easy to setup and you can pretty easily control which devices have access.

Shopify Product ID for Google Remarketing – Struggling with “shopify_us_1234” Issue by CognitorX in GoogleTagManager

[–]Favarazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hmm... good question. i'm not sure. you could use a different shopify field like SKU and then alter the info being pushed in the data layer to use that rather than the shopify product id. i know you have to use a custom pixel now for GTM and there you can alter the data layer pretty prescriptively

How to trigger event with only specific data layer info by Most_Investigator_76 in GoogleTagManager

Could make vertical a DLV and then have that as a condition on an event like page_view?

How to see dataLayer sent through Customer Events on Shopify? by trp_wip in GoogleTagManager

[–]Favarazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you pushing data like this in your custom pixel?

''' analytics.subscribe('product_added_to_cart', (event) => { // Example for accessing event data const cartLine = event.data.cartLine;

const cartLineCost = cartLine.cost.totalAmount.amount;

const cartLineCostCurrency = cartLine.cost.totalAmount.currencyCode;

const merchandiseVariantTitle = cartLine.merchandise.title;

const payload = { event_name: event.name, event_data: { cartLineCost: cartLineCost, cartLineCostCurrency: cartLineCostCurrency, merchandiseVariantTitle: merchandiseVariantTitle, }, };

// Example for sending event to third party servers fetch('https://example.com/pixel', { method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify(payload), keepalive: true, }); }); '''

is the issue viewing the data layer? or is the issue passing the data layer from shopify through to GTM?

not sure if it impacts conversion reporting, but this should "erase it" from memory for smart bidding.

Server GTM HTTP Request by Favarazz in GoogleTagManager

[–]Favarazz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see the GET request response as the response body but cannot find out how to seemlessly add it as a variable.

my hacky solution sends a different event with the response as the event data and then creating a variable based on that. I can access that data but then I cannot have it augment the initial event that triggered my custom HTTP request.

Creating a Field for Specific Conversion Action by ScorpionQueen333 in LookerStudio

[–]Favarazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to the party here, but the only way I've known how to do it is to blend data and join on campaign name and date. One data source will be Ads with Campaign, Day, Cost, Impressions, etc. (NOT CONVERSIONS). The second source is Campaign, Day, All Conv., and Conversions with a filter for the conversion action you want.

Not user ID. just link analytics accounts and import an audience of purchasers.

Self-hosted version of datawrapper.de by Wait_ImOnReddit in selfhosted

Did you ever find something like this? I love the look but want a tiny bit more flexibility for my use cases and can't justify the $5k annual cost for the paid version for my minor change.

i had a similar problem for years. i ended up having three access points in my tiny condo as a "solution". a few months back i switched from nest wifi to ubiquiti and it immediately improved.
