Before you begin
Before taking this tutorial, check our list of Pixel apps and make sure the integration you're looking for is not already available.
Also, if you're wondering whether to create a Pixel app or customize an HTML tag with Google Tag Manager, keep in mind that the first option is always the most recommended. Creating a new app allows for more freedom during development and may also help other users interested in the same solution.
