We&rsquo;ll show you how to choose the right settings to eliminate version conflicts.<\/p>\n<h2>Resolve GTM version conflicts &ndash; tips &amp; tricks<\/h2>\n<p>When using a tag management tool such as Google Tag Manager, various situations and error messages can occur. Particularly when collaborating within a team when working on the same topic, conflicts can arise with different settings in tag management. These then have to be remedied in order to reach a common denominator. We would like to show you how.<\/p>\n<h2>Why workspaces?<\/h2>\n<p>To ensure efficient work, so-called workspaces were introduced in Google Tag Manager. In the standard version of GTM, up to 3 work areas can be used at the same time. In the GTM 360 version, however, Google offers an unlimited number of workspaces.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the workspaces, there are also container versions, which contain the final definition of the<strong>Tag configurations for the website<\/strong>include. If a workspace is published, a new GTM container version is created and the changes or settings from the published workspace become active on the website. But publishing a workspace has another impact. She notices that all other workspaces are marked as &ldquo;out of date&rdquo;. This means that all workspaces must be synchronized with the latest GTM Container version.<\/p>\n<p>If you work on a GTM container without a team, i.e. alone, the &ldquo;default workspace&rdquo; can be used, as there is no risk that the changes made will be overwritten or changed by other people.<\/p>\n<p>When using a GTM container for 2 or more people, it is recommended to use workspaces to achieve a clean separation of work. With one exception: If everyone agrees on the changes and only one person makes the changes at the same time, then work can be done in a central workspace.<\/p>\n<p>The following two case studies show which (solvable) problems can arise when working in a team in a Google Tag Manager container with workspaces.<\/p>\n<h2>Case study: &ldquo;Workspace sync error&rdquo;<\/h2>\n<p>If two people are working on a GA4 setup in a Google Tag Manager container at the same time, we recommend using separate workspaces:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"297\" height=\"228\" src=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/blog-gtm-versionskonflikte-1.png\" alt=\"GTM Workspace\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/p>\n<p>In principle, an agreement can be made before work on what basic settings a setup should have.
