com/tagmanager/answer/10718549 to get an overview of consent, we recommend enabling consent overview within tag manager within tag manager, go to "admin" > "container" > "container settings" > "enable consent overview " consents' mapping (google consent mode) to know which user choices correspond to google's consent types, here's the corresponding mapping we provide ad storage > tcf purpose 1 ad user data > tcf purpose 1 e 7 ad personalization > tcf purpose 3 e 4 analytics storage > cookie measurement functionality storage > cookie feature personalization storage > cookie user experience security storage > cookie feature the consent mapping is 1 to 1, meaning that in the consent panel you will see the types of consent from google consent mode listed without any mask consent trigger if you need a trigger that is executed when there's consent, our integration sends an event to gtm called pubtech queue on consent thanks to this event, it's possible to create a trigger in gtm to be used according to the execution needs of your gtm tags the event we show below is triggered upon the user's consent release upon the user's consent change at the beginning of the page if consent has already been previously given the management or removal of any triggered tags throughout the page is the responsibility of those who implement the tags the trigger to create in the trigger section of gtm is a custom event , adding the event name pubtech queue on consent once the trigger is saved, you can use it as a trigger for your tags now you can use this trigger directly or in combination with other triggers according to your needs we want to inform you that this custom event has been added because through google tag manager triggers we noticed that it's not possible to execute tags when the user clicks to give consent (whether it's a refusal or an accept all) because it can happen at an unknown time however, once consent is obtained, the cmp will update the consent status in gtm as quickly as possible here is the link to the google documentation for implementations and configurations https //support google com/analytics/answer/9976101 https //support google
