Paste the Neo-Tag code in the Custom HTML tag being created and hit save.
To track events on the website, create new tag and implement the event code on the tag. Assign a specific event trigger.
This is where you will set up the pixel or tag code. Platform-specific options can be selected when only one platform needs to be connected or choose Neotag for multiple marketing platforms.
After implementing the desired tag in your Tag Manager, click Finish. Datahash will verify the overall setup and send an update via email or notification when the data starts flowing.
