# Integrating with GA4 using Google Tag Manager

Depending on your GA4 setup, you may need to route the Intelligems `experience_impression` event from the Data Layer to GA4 using Google Tag Manager. This step-by-step guide will help you set up the Tag in Google Tag Manager to do this.

1. **Add an Intelligems setting so that the GA4 event is added to the Data Layer**. In your theme code, above the Intelligems script in the \<head> of the theme, add:\\

   ```html
   <script>
     window.igSettings = {
       useDataLayer: true
     }
   </script>
   ```
2. In Google Tag Manager (GTM), first create the Variable. Select "Variables" then "New":
