The URL in the tag manager is not the URL the browser fired.
The string in Campaign Manager and the string in Chrome Network are not the same artifact. One of them is allowed to contain [CACHEBUSTER] . The other is not. A pixel checker that does not know which one you pasted will fail every legal macro, or it will pass a token that never expanded. That is the whole job of the tester: say what you pasted, then check it against the contract for that state.…
The URL in the tag manager does not necessarily match the URL that is actually fired by the browser. The pixel checker must know which string you pasted in order to provide accurate results. There are three states to consider when validating URLs: template, fired, and unknown. The template state represents what the ad server, MMP, or tag manager stores. The fired state refers to what was actually sent to the device or server. The unknown state is the default when no specific state is stated.
