Channel flow for client container?

1

Hello there,

A question about channel flow tag. We see this is only available for SST container, and since we have not migrated yet, we are wondering if there is something similar we could do with our client container? Like creating a similar cookie from client side? The reason is we see a lot of (not set) when looking at session source / medium, which we need to fix asap!

THANKS,

Hello,

  1. There isn’t a ready made one, as far as I know
  2. You could adopt something like that client-side, in principle although persistance of that cookie would be affected on Safari for instance.
  3. I suggest you look at this Unassigned and not set traffic source in GA4 - Stape for not set issues

Thanks @Dan ! I see session_start is missing for our all (not set) session source / medium. I already configured google tag to fire first before any GA4 tag but still see the same issue.

I am now thinking if we push UTM manually from URL into google tag as event param, do you think this could give us less not set? Or even from a cookie, where we are already saving UTM params. Thanks!
