Quickstart

Create a tracker

In the Dashboard, open Trackers and click New tracker. Give it a name and enter your website's domain (e.g. example.com).

Copy the snippet from the Connect dialog and paste it into the <head> of every page you want to track.

<script

  data-debug="false"
  data-gtagsync="true"

  data-base-url="https://beacon.flowtagservices.com"
></script>

Verify

Click Check your website in the Connect dialog to confirm the tag is live.
