Shopify GTM Server-Side + Stape Audit, Security Cleanup & Tracking Optimization
Budget: $200 – $250 USD
I have a Shopify-based eCommerce website currently using:
- Google Tag Manager (Web + Server)
- Stape Server-Side Tracking (Pro Plan)
- Facebook Pixel + Conversion API
- TikTok Pixel + Events API
- GA4 Tracking
- Cloudflare
The initial setup has already been completed, but before launching paid ads, I want a highly experienced professional to fully audit, secure, clean, validate, and optimize the entire tracking infrastructure.
This project is focused heavily on:
- Tracking accuracy
- Security
- Proper event deduplication
- Stable server-side architecture
- Clean access management
- Cloudflare tracking-domain validation
Current Stack:
- Shopify
- GTM Web Container
- GTM Server Container
- Stape
- GA4
- Meta Pixel + CAPI
- TikTok Pixel
- Cloudflare
Tasks Required:
1. Full Tracking Audit
- Audit complete tracking setup
- Verify GA4, Meta, and TikTok events
- Identify duplicate events, missing events, or incorrect mappings
- Verify browser + server-side event consistency
- Check Event ID matching and deduplication
2. Security & Access Cleanup (VERY IMPORTANT)
- Audit all API keys and tokens
- Safely regenerate and replace Stape API keys if required
- Review and clean unnecessary permissions/access
- Remove previous developer access where needed
- Ensure secure GTM, Shopify, Meta, TikTok, GA4, and Stape access structure
- Follow security best practices
3. Cloudflare Review & Tracking Domain Validation
- Review Cloudflare configuration related to tracking
- Verify tracking subdomain setup
- Ensure Stape custom tracking domain is correctly configured
- Check DNS, SSL, proxy, and security configuration
- Ensure Cloudflare is not interfering with server-side event delivery
4. Tracking Optimization
- Fix GA4 “unfiled items” issue
- Improve event structure
- Validate proper mapping for:
- ViewContent
- AddToCart
- InitiateCheckout
- Purchase
- Verify EMQ quality
- Optimize Meta CAPI and TikTok Events API setup
- Ensure accurate browser/server deduplication
5. Stape Custom Loader Validation
- Verify Stape Custom Loader setup
- Ensure it is correctly implemented and active
- Confirm tracking accuracy improvements
6. Testing & Verification
Must provide testing proof through:
- GTM Preview
- GA4 Realtime
- Facebook Events Manager
- TikTok Events Manager
All events must be tested and verified properly.
7. Documentation
Provide:
- Short report of issues found
- What was fixed
- Security improvements completed
- Basic explanation/guidance for future understanding
Requirements:
- Must have REAL experience with:
- GTM Server-Side
- Stape
- Shopify tracking
- Meta CAPI
- TikTok Events API
- Cloudflare tracking-domain setup
- Must show previous similar work
- Must communicate clearly
- Must work transparently
- Must avoid breaking live tracking
Important Notes:
- Limited access will be provided only where necessary
- Security is the highest priority
- Experience is more important than low pricing
- Please do NOT apply without actual GTM Server-Side + Stape experience
Please include in your proposal:
- Similar projects completed
- Your technical approach
- Estimated completion time
- Post-delivery support
- Google Tag Manager (Web + Server)
- Stape Server-Side Tracking (Pro Plan)
- Facebook Pixel + Conversion API
