Tag Sequencing in Matomo Tag Manager

In GTM, there’s a Tag Sequencing feature to allow tags to fire sequentially, so that one initiates a tracking pixel, and another fires asyncrhonously but dependent on the first pixel.

Is there a similar feature here on Matomo? I note “Fire delay” and “priority” but if the first script hasn’t finished firing, the second one may fire ineffectively, since it is dependent on the first.

I didn’t find a real sequencing. Furthermore delay and priority seems not to work. I have issues with the general google ads tag always loading after the google conversion tags. Should be the way around. However I couldn’t change the sequencing with priority nor delay :frowning:

Hi @dsp76, @alderson59

The fire delay and priority won’t verify the previous “tag” has loaded.
What I suggest is creating a JavaScript tag that runs some code (eg. tracking pixel) and at the end of the tag execution, trigger another tag. Then you’ll be sure the other tag will be run after the 1st one has finished.

So you suggest to manually concatenate triggers?

Hi @dsp76
Not really concatenate, but you could emit an event (JavaScript event or Tag Manager trigger) on each tag execution end…
