Is the Google Tag (Initialization) always required for GA4 event? If we have tracking code manually added to the site, and we add the Google Tag will it duplicate the tracking? Thanks very much.

hahaha! I like the fact you admit to you can't count to 10. I take that as a funny joke. no hard feeling. x

Hi Julius, I'm completely confused by 'mistake #1', as it does not make any sense to me. If your GA4 configuration tag fires before an event, then that event isn't captured/sent to GA4? Because of this, how is GTM supposed to work at all exactly? Can you please redo mistake #1 as a completely separate and new video? I'm completely lost on your description and examples provided.

I believe what Julius meant is that if you have parameters (such as page category) that you want to send along with the event to GA4, the data layer push must happen before the tag is fired. He's talking about any GA4 tag and not exclusively the GA4 config tag; that was only an example.
