# Tracking Multi-part steps with GTM data layer (dataLayer.push)

How to pass information to tags with the use of the data layer object. This allows you to pass events or variables. It also allows you to setup triggers based the values of variables.

{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure to also read the Google Data Layer documentation if you haven't already: <https://developers.google.com/tag-platform/tag-manager/datalayer>

{% hint style="warning" %}
The below JavaScript code is just an example, you will need to make changes accordingly based on your use case. Place this code in the footer of your site.

<pre class="language-javascript"><code class="lang-javascript"><strong>(function(){
</strong>    function hashChanged(storedHash){
        // If hash contains step
