Track localhost on Analytics in Google Tag Manager

Question

I have a problem with tracking Google Analytics on localhost with Google Tag Manager. I can see on the API for Analytics ( https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/

Answer 1

The documentation referenced it is about the Universal Analytics (new GA API version).

To solve this problem, you have two options:

1) Using the traditional tag "Google Analytics", in 'More settings' > 'Domains and Directories' > 'Domain Name':

none

2) Or switch to the "Universal Analytics" tag in Tag Google Manager, configure the required fields and in 'More settings' > 'Cookie Configuration' > 'Cookie Domain':

none

In both cases, this option should be turned off before the launch of the site.
