Sep 1, 2025September 2025 focused on strengthening GTG integration, health visibility, and test/CI reliability in google/site-kit-wp. Delivered GTG debugging data with GTG fields behind a feature flag, added tests, and removed GTG-specific fields from Ads/GA4 to prevent leakage. Surfaced GTG health status in Google Tag Manager settings and streamlined GTG URL handling by removing the s parameter from GTG tag sources. Expanded health and measurement capabilities by supporting HTTP methods and request bodies, adding getRequestBody, and simplifying health endpoint logic. Stabilized tests by addressing dynamic property issues in FakeModule and explored resolver access guard usage (reverted for simplicity). Tightened CI/CD with GTG directory trigger updates and cleaned up documentation blocks in Feature_Metrics for readability. These efforts improve debugging speed, data quality, deployment reliability, and overall site health, delivering measurable business value through faster issue resolution and more robust data pipelines.
