GTM data layer eventCallback function

So i have Ecommerce code setup in GTM data layer, but after that is sent to Analytics i want the page to be redirected so i know i should be using eventCallback but it is not working for some reason.

<body>
<script>
    dataLayer = [{
        'transactionId': '56833',
        'transactionAffiliation': 'TestName',
        'transactionTotal': 1540.00,
        'transactionTax': 385,
        'transactionShipping': 0,
        'transactionProducts': [{
            'sku': 'FFSS44HH',
            'name': 'test',
            'category': 'TestCategory',
            'price': 1540.00,
            'quantity': 2
        }],
        'eventCallback': function() {
            document.location.href='https://www.paypal.com/something';
        }
    }];
</script>

})(window,document,'script','dataLayer','GTM-XXXXX');</script>

I have set up Ecommerce firing rule in GTM for this URL. I tried hitCallback and eventCallback but the redirect does not happen... What am i doing wrong here?

Solution

  • i think i found a solution, i just added this ('event' : 'datalayerReady') at the end of the data layer:

    'event' : 'datalayerReady',
'eventCallback': function() {
  document.location = "https://www.paypal.com/something";
}
