If you want to control the order in which tags run on your website, you can set their priority and put them in a specific order. This is handy when you have related tags and one needs to run a script before the other.

In this article, we’ll explain how to set a specific order for your tags.

Before you start

Here are some things to know, before you begin:

• By default, tags fire in a random order.
• Tags with priority fire from top to bottom in the list and before the other tags.
• All sync tags fire before async tags.

To fire tags in a specific order, follow these steps:

1. Go to Menu > Tag Manager.

2. Navigate to Settings.

3. On the left, click Tag priority.

4. Choose the tag group you want to work with: Async tags or Sync tags.

5. Select the tags you want to prioritize from the list of available tags.

6. Move the selected tags to a list containing prioritized tags.

7. In Prioritized tags, drag and drop tags to place them in a specific order.

8. When you’re done, click Save.

9. (Optional) Test your tags in debug mode.

10. When you’re happy with how tags work, click Publish.

11. All done!
