How do you manage GTM permissions and collaborate with team members?
Tag Manager lets you set access for each person on each container, from no access up to publish. Give people the lowest level that lets them do their job. When we work in your container, we make changes in a separate workspace and publish only once a change is agreed. No access means they can't see the container. Read lets someone look but not change anything. Edit lets them build changes in a workspace. Approve lets them approve a workspace's changes into a version. Publish lets them push a version live. Every publish becomes a numbered version, so you can see what changed and go back to an earlier one. Our technical tracking service covers the Tag Manager set-up.
Access for each person
Google Tag Manager sets access per person and per container. The levels are no access, read, edit, approve and publish. Give people the lowest level that lets them do their job.
How we work in your container
- We make changes in a workspace set up for that task, not in the default one.
- We preview before anything goes live.
- We publish when the change has been agreed.
Versions and rolling back
Every publish creates a numbered version. If a change breaks something, you can republish the one before it.
Server containers
Server containers can hold keys for ad platforms. Treat access to them more carefully than access to a browser container.
Our technical tracking service covers the set-up, and the Tag Manager page shows how we run it.

Also worth asking
Other answers about the same tools.
What is technical and tracking infrastructure?
It's the set-up that counts what happens on your site and sends it where it needs to go: tracking tags, analytics, ad-platform conversions, your CRM connection and cookie consent, plus the hosting and security around your website.
How do you set up website analytics and tracking?
We agree with you what counts as a conversion, then set up Google Tag Manager and GA4, plus server-side tracking through Stape for sites that spend on ads. Before we hand over, we check the data is actually arriving.
How do you handle compliance management for my website?
We work with your cookie consent tool, or suggest one we've worked with, and connect it to your tags so they follow the visitor's choice. How that's wired depends on the project, so we test what your tags actually do. We don't write legal text or give legal advice, so your privacy policy needs sign-off from someone qualified.
What is ad platform integration and why does it matter?
Ad platform integration means joining your website, tracking and CRM to the ad platforms, so they receive the leads and sales that came from their ads. Without it, bidding learns from clicks and form fills instead of customers.
What is CRM and lead flow management?
A CRM is where your contacts and deals live. Lead flow is how an enquiry gets there: the form, the tracking behind it and the follow-up. We connect them so each lead arrives with its source attached.
