3 years ago Hi @tongdatarunsdeep,
Apologies if I've misunderstood the issue; feel free to clear up if necessary.
I've been able to run this code successfully below. Before running the code, I've set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS to my service account (json) file.
const {google} = require('googleapis');
const tagmanager = google.tagmanager('v2');
async function main() {
const auth = new google.auth.GoogleAuth({
// Scopes can be specified either as an array or as a single, space-delimited string.
scopes: ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/tagmanager.edit.containers'],
});
// Acquire an auth client, and bind it to all future calls
const authClient = await auth.getClient();
google.options({auth: authClient});
// Do the magic
const res = await tagmanager.accounts.containers.workspaces.variables.update({
// When provided, this fingerprint must match the fingerprint of the variable in storage.
fingerprint: 'placeholder-value',
// GTM Variable's API relative path. Example: accounts/{account_id\}/containers/{container_id\}/workspaces/{workspace_id\}/variables/{variable_id\}
path:
'accounts/my-account/containers/my-container/workspaces/my-workspace/variables/my-variable',
// Request body metadata
requestBody: {
},
});
console.log(res.data);
}
main().catch(e => {
console.error(e);
throw e;
});Please make sure the service account has the correct permissions to make these changes.

I’m using a service account to access tagmanager API but getting 404 error for some functions.
After authorising the service account by using credentials.json file, I could access most of the tagmanager API v2 functions except for variable update for custom javascript(jsm) type variable.
The code returned 404 permission denied error. The same code works for other variable types, eg, DataLayer (v) variable (returns 200 code).
The service account has admin access at the GTM account level, and publish access at the container level. (The container itself was created by the same service account).
I have tried the same configuration via API explorer, it uses OAth2 flow to auth my personal email address(has the same access level at account and container level as the service account) and returned 200. I then copied the Auth token generated by the API explorer page and forced the node module oauth2client.js to use this token on /node_modules/google-auth-library/build/src/auth/oauth2client.js:337. from:
to:
After this, the custom javascript variable can be updated by my code. which means the issue is caused by the auth token generated for the service account.
Error log:
