I was wondering how to go about implementing global scripts for use with GTM. I think the example given in the next.js docs doesn't specifically deal with global cases, I'm assuming the way to go about it is to apply <Script/> tags in _app.js to achieve this.

Doing the same thing and seems to be working fine, although there really wasn't any up to date docs.

It's almost like we need to create this example, and possibly add a section in the docs with how to do it. @igormartimiano out of curiosity could you share an example of what you did?

The same is true of with-google-tag-manager.

There was some recent activity around using <Script /> and it causing duplicate tags when navigating between pages, so for the moment I'm sticking to using _document and <script> tags: #27218
