Documentation is lacking... 😢 I hope it gets updated soon. 😄

@esbeto Thanks for stepping in.

I realise we are lacking on documentation. Unfortunately or not, I am very busy these weeks and going on vacations next week.

Also I am not an expert on many of the providers.

That said, I will try to make better documentation as soon as possible. Meanwhile, it would be awesome to get some PRs for this.

[DamianKornak]

Very helpful. I had to make some changes from esbeto's post (using Angulartics2 2.2.2) to get it to work:

The event label variable set to "event" not "target-properties"

The event interaction type variable set to "interactionType" not "interaction-type"

The pageviews trigger set to fire on "Page View" not "content-view"

This is super helpful, I wasn't able to find any tutorials that talked about Data Layer Variables, but now that I see it here, it all makes perfect sense, this HAS to be added to documentation-

If anyone has a chance please add to the readme for GTM https://github.com/angulartics/angulartics2/tree/master/src/lib/providers/gtm

[esbeto]

Hey @ajshapiro, these changes were changes because of how the library works now?

[ajshapiro]

@esbeto This was as of v2.2.2. I'm now using 2.4.0 without a problem. Can't speak to whether this applies to the latest version.

Anyone has figured that out in a current version of GTM?

If anyone is still wondering what the Data Layer Variable Names should be in @esbeto's post, just look at the source code here:

https://github.com/angulartics/angulartics2/blob/2bd0508ed4094649d9be2835dbef59aca8140afc/src/lib/providers/gtm/gtm.ts#L48-L74

You can see that for instance, the :

The event label variable set to "event" not "target-properties" etc-
