Hi,

Firstly big thanks, this really helped me to sort my gtag issue with how to set the url from angular. :-)

I assume that you have used a script file so you can easily access the gtag function.
One syntax i've found that can make this simpler is to use the following :
(<any>window)
This means that the whole code can exist inside the app.component.ts like so:

if (event instanceof NavigationStart) {
   const url = event['url'];
   if (url !== null && url !== undefined && url !== '' && url.indexOf('null') < 0) {
      (<any>window).gtag('config',` environment.googleAnalyticsID , { 'page_path': url });
   }
}

Just wanted to share in case you weren't aware (oh also you might notice i'm using an environment variable as a bit of syntactical sugar).

Thanks again, much appreciated.
