Confused: GA or ID for configuration? #30

In the setup guide (https://github.com/nuxt-community/google-gtag#options) you write: Google Analytics property ID. - isn't this meant to be the Google Tag ID?

As far as I am aware, you should insert the Google Tag Manager ID, and then the Google Tag manger will inject the tags you need (such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel ID, etc), right? Or what am I missing here?

The Tag Manager ID starts with GTM- where as Google Analytics start with UA

I tested and it is indeed the GTM id I need to provide - pretty confusing tbh.

Anyhow, I found the library to be full of bugs, and I am afraid I can't use it.
