While tag details are accessible in the Live Debugging and Dashboard sections, Reports offer critical data for debugging. They provide insights into the tags triggered during a session, including their frequency and associated metrics for data analysis. This information is crucial for diagnosing errors at various levels—whether related to the tag itself, the provider, transformation functions, configuration issues, or missing attributes. Using Reports, users can pinpoint specific problems and missing data that may lead to tag failures.

Tags are a collection of data elements, providers, qualification criteria, and privacy settings. Tags are used to build simplified data points and analyze and monitor the data in real-time to ease the marketing processes. You can use the code snippet or MediaPixel to configure the data, send data to providers, and simplify the marketing processes. The two types of Tag Management Solutions are Server-side Tagging solution and Browser/Client-side Tagging solution.

Server-side Tagging

In Server-side Tagging, the events are sent to Ingest Labs and based on the events and configuration of tags, the respective tags are triggered. Server-side tagging includes the marketing needs of the server-side ecosystem. You can collect the data in a first-party consented manner for better control over data collection and transfer the high-performance tag management and streaming to the customer. All integrations are performed using MagicPixel UI platform.

Client-side Tagging

In Client-side tagging, events are not sent to the server and all tasks are performed on the client directly. The tags are triggered on the browser or client website and not sent to the server. Ingest Labs collects the tag information and reports triggered through the SDK on the client website. However, the actual tags are triggered on the client.

This data classification setting allows the serverside processing to apply a redaction strategy - like anonymize for email ID, IP address, phone number and so on.

Step 7: Click Save to save the changes.

Data Elements are the core components you define while creating the tags. Data elements act as components that intelligently fetch information from across your digital property. You can create any number of custom Data elements for a particular Data type and define the elements in the tags as per client requirements. Some of the Data types include Server Header, Server Cookie, Magic Pixel Data Layer, URL Parameter, Custom JavaScript, Custom event, and so on.

To add a new server-side tag, perform the following steps:

Step 1: Select Tags from the left navigation panel.

Step 2: Click the Add Tag dropdown select For server.

Step 3: The Select Provider panel opens on the right side. Select a provider from the list or use the search bar to find and select a provider.

Step: 4: Select Trigger.

The Choose Triggers panel opens on the right side. Choose a trigger from the list or use the search bar to find and select a trigger, then click Done.

Step Result: The tag is triggered for the respective trigger data.

Set Qualification Criteria

Qualification Criteria of a tag are conditions/triggers that inform Ingest Labs when to trigger a particular tag. You can add multiple Qualification Criteria and these criteria are layered.

Click Choose Qualification Criteria.

Note: This step is optional.

Click Choose Qualification Criteria. The Choose Qualification Criteria panel opens on the right side. Select an option from the dropdown or use the search bar to find and select a criterion, then click Done.

Set Tag Info

This is the step where you set a name and validity period for the tag. The default validity period is one year for any new tag that is created and can be set to any desired date. To understand tag validity or expiry, see the section Set the Validity period and Tag Expiry.

Name: The Tag name.

Validity Period: Denotes the validity period of the tag including Start Date and End Date.

Note: If you don't enter the tag name, an error message appears: This value is required.

Set Validity and Tag Expiry

While creating a tag on Ingest Labs, you can set the validity period of a particular tag and define tag expiry. The default validity period is one year for any new tag that is created and can be set to any desired date. When the expiry date is closer, you will receive reminder e-mail notification about the expiry of the tag. If no action is taken, the tag stops triggering post the set validity period. You can find all expired tags in the “Paused State” in the Publish section and you can remove the expired tags to reduce the size of your SDK.

Set Tag Query Parameters

The Query parameters include the set of dynamic values that are included along with the Base URL while executing the query. These parameters appear in the Attributes section as well along with the values.

Set Provider Attributes

The Provider is a mandatory setting while adding a new tag. You can add any number of Provider attributes using the Key-Value pair and configure the settings using the Settings option. The user can view the providers attributes added from Provider side configuration.

For a particular Provider attribute, you must set the value either from the Data Elements or Transformers.

After selecting either from the Data Element or Transformer, the value appears in the Value column.

The Transformers or the transformation functions are the main building blocks of data while implementing tags. The data layer value may return an object and needs to convert it into a variety of other formats to be used within tags or provider attributes.

The standard approach is to create multiple Data elements and format the value each time while creating other Tag Managers. This results in the same data being redefined in various occurrences. However, if the source data changes, then you must update all the instances where it is being read and transformed to different formats.

A transformation function can accept any number of data elements as inputs, format the data, and return it in a different format as required for a dynamic template parameter.
