DLV - adClickthroughUrl
- Type: Data Layer
- Name: adClickthroughUrl
DLV - adCreativeId
- Type: Data Layer
- Name: adCreativeId
DLV - adFormat
- Type: Data Layer

Under Tags, add the following tags:

adImpression
- Type: Google Analytics: GA4 Event
- Set the measurement ID to you GA4 container using a variable or by entering it manually.

Step 3 - Configure Custom Definitions in GA4

Now that GTM forwards our Omerlo Ad Events to GA4, let's configure the parameters in GA4 to allow analytics to include the parameter values in reports.

Under Admin, Custom Definitions, add the following Custom Dimensions:

ad_clickthrough_url:
- Scope: Event
- Event parameter: adClickthroughUrl
ad_creative_id:
- Scope: Event
- Event parameter: adCreativeId
ad_format:
- Scope: Event
- Event parameter: adFormat
ad_media_id
- Scope: Event
- Event parameter: adMediaId
