Copy your Tags, Triggers and Variables and Paste them into any other account

Description from store
Easily Copy and Paste your Tags, Triggers, and Variables from one Google Tag Manager account to the next. Simply add them to the extension and then paste them into your intended account. Your items will be uploaded through the GTM API.
You can put together your own menu of Tags, Triggers and Variables that you want to copy to another account. No more Container exports and reimports through the GTM Admin interface.
Notes:
- The relationship between Tags and Triggers will remain intact as long as they are part of the same "paste".
- If an asset (Tag, Trigger or Variables) under the same name already exists, the extension will upload the asset with "(#)" attached to the end of the name.
Updates:
- Completely re-written the extension (March 2025):
- newly improved "copy" experience
- new UI for the clipboard
- dependency check feature to add all dependancy to the clipboard
- the oauth scope now ask for less permissions
- now supports templates, tag sequencing, built-in variables and dependency rewrites
Known issues:
- If you edit an item right before you copy it to the clipboard, it might not have the changes in the paste. That’s because the extension is working with a cached version of the container.
- If you copy a tag connected to a template, the upload might fail because it can’t find the reference
- If you delete a dependant item from the clipboard, the upload might fail as it doesn’t have the right items to connect back while pasting

- (2022-09-19) Bill Mottashed: Really great extension, makes rolling out new configs across many domains much easier. However, triggers are no longer copying to the extension, so those need to be done manually as of now. Still works for copying and pasting the tags which is better than nothing!
- (2022-09-01) Pietro Mingotti: Great idea, works also to duplicate lots of tags if you need to. Though, it only works for a small number of elements. I have tried several times to paste 16 tags and sometimes 10 are pasted, sometimes 6, sometimes 12. Still, better than do it all by hand.
- (2022-05-26) Mariusz Żygało: Niestety ostatnio nie działa za dobrze. Super działała prze kilka lat. A teraz co chwilę jakiś error przy próbie kopiowania lub wcale nie chce zaskoczyć.
- (2022-04-25) Levi R: Fantastic idea and can be useful but with around 15+ copies, not all of them paste. I've taken to copying 10 tags/trigger/variables at a time which still saves time but it could be better.
- (2021-07-20) Romulo Gomes: Super useful, tks Julian!! I recommend this to everyone I know that has to work with GTM.
- (2021-07-19) Uriah Gibson: Hey hey! Love it so far, only one thing I can think of that would make this better, the ability to have a few folders where I could keep sets of tags, triggers and variables that I constantly use in different accounts. ex. tags I constantly have to set up that are generic that are tedious, so basically I'm just asking you to help me be a little lazier. lolz, keep up the good work
- (2021-04-09) Amit yadav: Thank you
- (2021-02-11) Richard Dawson: An essential tool if you use Google Tag Manager to create multiple tags!
- (2020-11-19) Paid Ads: Amazing! Saved me so much time. You can copy tags/triggers/variables etc within a container, or, copy/paste to another separate container all together. Thank you for creating this well made extension measureschool :)
- (2020-10-12) Christopher Derrell: Excellent plugin, very useful, very easy to use.
- (2020-09-21) Nick O: Can you please find a way to enable copying dataLayer and Lookup Table variables... That would save me so much time & is the only thing stopping this from becoming a perfect extension
- (2020-09-03) Kayla Echols: Easy to use. Works for my 9-5 when updating tags, triggers, and variables and I need to export to another account. :) Thanks!

- (2019-11-06) Panos Tsimpos: Has saved hours of work when dealing with 10+ containers. Simpler than doing JSON exports and imports.

- (2019-07-04) Revanth Karra: Awesome dude, really loved it
- (2019-06-27) Tony Snark: PERFECT. This extension shouldn't need to exist, but I'm so glad it does. It's crazy that GTM doesn't have a native copy/paste or porting function. Thank you for picking up Googe's slack!
- (2019-03-26) Petro Peredriy: For reasons that are not understandable, I cannot use the extension. I can neither copy nor paste any elements. How exactly do you need to log in?
- (2019-02-13) Matthew Nixon: Good for small volumes but very buggy for larger volumes, also logs out every 10 minutes

Highly recommend for those in an agency setting and manager multiple clients' GTM accounts!
