How this event is built in your container
Sign Up uses a Custom Event trigger that fires when your site pushes dataLayer.push({ event: 'sign_up' }) - the trigger is pre-configured to match this exact event name, so nothing needs adjusting after import.
Requirement: Your site needs to actually push that dataLayer event for the trigger to fire - the container listens for it, it doesn't generate it. Most WooCommerce sites get this from a data layer / enhanced ecommerce tracking plugin; check that dataLayer.push({event: 'sign_up', ...}) fires at the right moment using GTM's Preview mode before publishing.
This event also uses shared ecommerce Data Layer Variables so the same values work across every ecommerce event and tracking platform:
ecommerce.currency- transaction currency codeecommerce.value- monetary value of the eventecommerce.items- array of product objects, following GA4's standard ecommerce item schema
The LinkedIn Insight Tag tag itself is added automatically and wired to this trigger - you won't need to create or configure it by hand in GTM.
Troubleshooting
Sign Up doesn't fire at all in GTM Preview mode.
Confirm your site is actually pushing dataLayer.push({event: 'sign_up'}) - open the browser console and check the dataLayer array at the moment the action happens. If it's not there, the container has nothing to listen for.
The event fires, but values show up blank or undefined.
Check that the pushed object's key names match exactly (case-sensitive) - a mismatched key like "Value" instead of "value" will show as undefined in GTM's variable preview.
Sign Up fires twice for the same action.
You likely have both this container's tag and a manually-added LinkedIn Insight Tag snippet both listening for the same action. Remove the manual one, or disable it, before publishing.
Frequently asked questions
What triggers the Sign Up event?
It fires automatically at the matching point in the WooCommerce visitor journey - the container builder wires up the correct trigger for you based on the standard dataLayer event for Sign Up, so there's nothing to configure manually beyond making sure your site actually pushes that event.
Why should I track Sign Up with LinkedIn Insight Tag specifically?
It's a core revenue signal - LinkedIn Insight Tag uses Sign Up data to measure return on ad spend, build retargeting audiences, and optimize bidding toward customers likely to complete this action. Accurate first-party data here also matters more as browsers restrict third-party cookies.
Is this free to set up?
Yes - the free tier covers 1 tracking platform at a time. If you need this event across several platforms in one container, unlocking full access covers all of them together.
Will this conflict with LinkedIn Insight Tag code I already added manually?
It can, if the same event fires twice from two separate sources. Remove any manually-added LinkedIn Insight Tag tag for this event before importing the generated container, or use GTM's Preview mode to confirm it only fires once.
How long does setup take?
A few minutes - select LinkedIn Insight Tag and the Sign Up event in the wizard, enter your tracking ID, download the container, and import it into GTM.
Should I pair this with server-side tracking for Sign Up?
For a revenue event like Sign Up, it's worth considering. This container handles the browser-side LinkedIn Insight Tag tag; a GTM server-side container or LinkedIn Insight Tag Conversions API alongside it can recover conversions lost to ad blockers and iOS/Safari tracking restrictions, improving match quality without duplicating this setup.
