How to Find a Tag ID in LiveAgent
This article explains how to locate the unique ID of a tag in your LiveAgent system. Tag IDs are useful when working with the API or managing tags programmatically.
Method 1: Using Browser Developer Tools (Network Tab)
This method allows you to find a tag ID by monitoring network requests in your browser:
- Open your browser's Developer Tools by pressing F12.
- Navigate to the Network tab.
- Start recording network activity (ensure the recording is active).
- In LiveAgent, locate and click on the tag you want to identify.
- Stop the network recording.
- Review the captured network requests to find the tag ID associated with your tag.
Note: The tag ID will appear in the API response or request payload when you interact with the tag in the admin panel.
Method 2: Export Tags to CSV
This method is simpler and does not require technical knowledge:
- In LiveAgent, navigate to the Tags section in your admin panel.
- Export your tags to a CSV file.
- Open the CSV file in a spreadsheet application (such as Excel or Google Sheets).
- Locate your tag in the spreadsheet and find the corresponding ID column.
Note: The CSV export will include all tag information, including the unique ID for each tag.
