Introduction

Without depending upon the developer, your marketing team can deploy marketing tags and tracking pixels. Google Tag Manager gives you permission to track video views, form inputs, scrolling, events, and many other factors that can tell what users are doing in your community with the functionality provided by you. This will help you in understanding how the functionality provided by you is helping the users for better understanding and whatever the actions they wanted to do is completing quicker and easier.

One of the most common challenges faced is whenever we are integrating Salesforce with Google Tag Manager, the configuration is required on both sides to integrate them in order to function properly.

I will show you step-by-step to configure Google Tag Manager and Salesforce Community Builder in order to successfully setup integration between both of them.
