Research direction

Locate the GTM installation wizard and the code that sets script.dataset.api; start by tracing how the self-hosted domain is made available there. Update the wizard so the generated value uses the deployed self-hosted domain rather than https://plausible.io, then verify the generated snippet for a self-hosted installation.

Description

Past Issues Searched

I have searched open and closed issues to make sure that the bug has not yet been reported

Issue is a Bug Report

This is a bug report and not a feature request, nor asking for self-hosted support

Using official Plausible Cloud hosting or self-hosting?

Self-hosting

Describe the bug

The script.dataset.api for the GTM installation wizard is wrong.

In this case, the Plausible Cloud address is displayed, whereas the domain where the Self-hosted version is deployed should be displayed.

Expected behavior

The GTM installation wizard should be filled using the correct self-hosted domain.

Current value: https://plausible.io/api/event
Correct value: https://plausible.example.com/api/event
