Google Tag Manager error with loadContainerPreferNonDefault JSONArray not supported

Question

When calling

PendingResult<ContainerHolder> pending = tagManager.loadContainerPreferNonDefault(CONTAINER_ID, R.raw.gtm_json);

I get the following error: java.lang.RuntimeException: JSONArrays are not supported

For the analytics library I'm using com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:8.1.0

Now when I edit the gtm_json file to remove all the JSON Arrays, it works fine, but obviously we don't want to do that.

Am I missing something?

Answer 1

The container is not published yet so Download is not enabled.

Export is NOT the correct method, it creates a JSON file that is primarily used to copy configurations within the tag manager GUI.

With a published mobile container you will have the Download option. Using the downloaded file the issue will be gone.
