I wonder if Stape can be used without Google Analytics 4. I see most of the documentation talking about GA4 + other additional services for sending events. In our setup, we don’t really need GA4 for tracking visitors, and adding this script will add loading time. So the question is simple…does Stape rely heavily in GA4 or can we make it work without GA4 implementation?
For example, can we use Google Ads Offline Conversions integration without using GA4?
Sure, you can use any other method of transferring data to the server container.
Stape for example has various SDKs: https://github.com/orgs/stape-io/repositories?q=sdk
Data tag and Data Client for this as well.
You can also use just fetch() for example.
Ok, now I am starting to understand how this all works.
In which situations would the fetch() way be beneficial?
If I understand correctly, all the data being sent via fetch() (JS), is done from the frontend, and that could expose sensitive user data in the browser requests.
