MORE ABOUT TAGDEBUGGER
--------------------------------------------
TagDebugger is designed to help you debug analytics and marketing tags on a page-by-page basis. After installing the TagDebugger extension, you will see a new tab in your Chrome Developer Tools. Simply open this tab, refresh the page, and you will see which marketing and analytics tags are firing on your website.

For each tag, you will see the following information:

Tag Name (e.g. Google Universal Analytics, Adobe Analytics, Ensighten, Floodlight)
Account (e.g. UA-12345678, mywebsite)
Category (e.g. Analytics, Advertising, Social, Tag Management)
Status (standard HTTP response codes)
Request size/Response size
Total Time/Latency

Basic Debugging
-----------------------
Clicking into each tag allows you to see the server request formatted as an easy-to-read, categorized hierarchy of variables. You can also view the actual request in both its HTML-encoded and decoded formats.

To clear the log, simply click the “Clear tag requests” button at the top of the extension’s interface.

Debugging on-click events and cross-domain tracking
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
By default, TagDebugger clears the log of requests upon navigating to a new page. By toggling the Record button in the extension’s interface, users can make the log persist when navigating from page to page. This will assist in troubleshooting on-click events and cross-domain tracking.

Downloading data
------------------------
Users can download a tab-delimited copy of the request log by clicking on the “Export data” button at the top of the interface. This data will appear in your Downloads folder as observepoint.data, and may be limited by the size of the data in the panel
