GTM Copy Paste Extension

Easily Copy and Paste your Tags, Triggers, and Variables from one Google Tag Manager account to the next. Simply add them to the extension and then paste them into your intended account. Your items will be uploaded through the GTM API.

You can put together your own menu of Tags, Triggers and Variables that you want to copy to another account. No more Container exports and reimports through the GTM Admin interface.

Notes:
- The relationship between Tags and Triggers will remain intact as long as they are part of the same \"paste\".
- If an asset (Tag, Trigger or Variables) under the same name already exists, the extension will upload the asset with \"- Copy\" attached to the end of the name.
- Currently, it's not possible to copy Built-In Variables, Folders and Custom Templates

Updates:
- Updated to fix the error that occurred when trying to copy single Triggers (May 2023)
- Added Firebase OAuth Flow, you don't have to be logged in to Chrome to use the extension anymore
- Added ability to Copy whole Containers into the paste Extension
(May 2019)
- Added ability to add all Tags, Triggers or Variables at once by right clicking on the item in the right Menu and adding them to the clipboard
- Bug Fixes for larger uploads
- Dec, 2019 - Bug fixes

FAQ:

- I'm having problems with the authentication. After I click the extension a window opens, but nothing happens?
This issue maybe caused by Cloudflares spam protection. Please visit auth.measureschool.com and pass the Captcha protection. Then try again.

- Can I copy Built-In Variables, Folders and Custom Templates?
No, this is currently not supported

- I'm getting a Error when uploading certain Tags.
This maybe caused by tags with a Tag Sequencing relationship to another tag, which is not part of the paste. I'd recommend to disable the Tag Sequencing option from the tag first and then re-copy the tag into the clipboard, before retrying the paste

Bill Mottashed (ID: 00000008e664819b) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/19/2022 Really great extension, makes rolling out new configs across many domains much easier. However, triggers are no longer copying to the extension, so those need to be done manually as of now. Still works for copying and pasting the tags which is better than nothing!

icon

Pietro Mingotti (ID: 00000020e99ec5ec) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/01/2022 Great idea, works also to duplicate lots of tags if you need to. Though, it only works for a small number of elements. I have tried several times to paste 16 tags and sometimes 10 are pasted, sometimes 6, sometimes 12. Still, better than do it all by hand.

Levi R (ID: 00000033c14f0f9d) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/25/2022 Fantastic idea and can be useful but with around 15+ copies, not all of them paste. I've taken to copying 10 tags/trigger/variables at a time which still saves time but it could be better.

Uriah Gibson (ID: 0000001b07aa0f21) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 07/19/2021 Hey hey! Love it so far, only one thing I can think of that would make this better, the ability to have a few folders where I could keep sets of tags, triggers and variables that I constantly use in different accounts. ex. tags I constantly have to set up that are generic that are tedious, so basically I'm just asking you to help me be a little lazier. lolz, keep up the good work
