Check your tag before publishing

Use Preview in your Tag Manager workspace to open Tag Assistant and connect it to your website. Browse a few pages and check that your tracking tag fires on the expected pages.

Keep one installation of your tracking code per page. If the same account is already installed through a plugin or directly in your HTML, use a single installation method.

Publish your changes. Then check your visitors.

In your Tag Manager workspace, select Submit, then Publish and Create Version. Review your changes, enter a version name, and select Publish for your live website. Saving the tag alone does not make it live.

After publishing, open your live website and browse a few pages. Then open Live Visitors to check the result. If you have excluded your own visits, test from a device or connection that is not excluded.
