In the "Triggering" section, select the trigger that will cause the div container to be displayed on your
website e.g. on the Thank-you page of your checkout process.

To add a trigger for the thank-you page, please follow these steps:

- Click the "Triggers" tab in the left sidebar, then click the "New" button.
- In the trigger configuration panel that appears, give your trigger a name that describes what it
does, such as "Thank-You Page Trigger".
- Under the "Trigger Configuration" section, select "Page View" as the trigger type. Under the "This
trigger fires on" section, select "Some Page Views" from the dropdown menu.
- In the "Fire this trigger when" section, specify the conditions that will cause the trigger to fire. In
this case, you will want to select "Page Path" from the dropdown menu and set the "contains"
operator. Then, enter the URL of your thank-you page in the value field. For example, if your
thank-you page is at example.com/thank-you, you would enter /thank-you in the value field.
- Click the "Save" button to create the trigger. Now, any Google Tag Manager tags that are associated
with this trigger will fire on the thank-you page whenever the trigger conditions are met.

To determine where the Sovendus banner will be displayed, you will need to define a div container with a
unique ID. Add the div container directly to the Thank-you page:

This involves modifying the HTML code of your Thank-you page to include the div container. You can do
this by editing the HTML code directly or by using a page builder or other tool that allows you to add
custom HTML to your page.

After making the changes to your shop, make sure the ID of the div container on your Thank-you page,
aligns with the iframeContainerId in the Sovendus tag configuration.

!GTM tag config

That's it! You should now have Sovendus properly integrated with GTM on your website.
