How to set tag in GTM to fire only once per session?
0
I have a tag "qualitative visit" that should fire when user performs specific action: clicks on links/buttons or spends 30 seconds on page. Tag should fire only once per session (meaning that if users enters website and clicks on any link tag should fire only after first qualitative interaction). Tag can fire second time for the same cookie only within next session.
The question is how I can achieve that?

P.S. this is not Google Analytics tag

Thank You in avance

You can set a cookie which tells you whether or not the session started or not. 

If the cookie is already set, the session has begun. If the cookie is not defined, the session just started. 

You may find code all around the web to set cookies. Be careful about the time calculation. Also i would recommend to set the duration of the cookie to the same length as your analytics :)

Happy tagging
