Create GTM tag for Logged In users

A

Hello!!

We have been trying to create Intercom GTM tags for logged out and logged in users.

  • For logged out users it was easy enough as we’ve followed the Intercom documentation and all good.
  • However, when it comes to Intercom Logged In users tag, we’ve followed this documentation but are not too sure of that we should add in the variables (please see picture below) for it to track the correct values for each user.
  • Is there some additional stept that’s not in the documentation that we should follow? Any data layer we should implement? Just to be sure we’re not missing anything.

We’d be super gratful for any insight on how exactly this tag implementation should be done.

Thanks a million!

Hey ​@anaivicuo 👋 Jacques here from Intercom Support. I hope all is well today!

To create Intercom GTM tags for logged-in users, ensure you include the user's details in the 'Install' method when the website loads. If users log in later, trigger the same tag again with the 'Update' method, including the user's details.

For identifying logged-in users, you should provide variables for 'User ID' or 'User Email' in the 'Data attributes' section. Avoid entering specific user IDs or email addresses directly to prevent incorrect user identification.

Additionally, you can include variables for standard attributes like the user's name, phone number, and a unique user hash if using identity verification.

Hope this helps!

    Thanks so much ​@Jacques Reynolds!

     

    Sorry if I wasn’t clear! If I want to identify logged-in users, what are the variables that I should add to retrieve the user’s information? And what changes should I apply to the data layer to give the brief to our developer? Could you give me an example, please?

     

    Thanks so much!
