# Post-Install Warm-Up

What happens after you install Trackingplan, from the warm-up phase to the specs it learns and the ones you or our support team adjust.

> After you install Trackingplan, it starts discovering your traffic and learns what is normal for it before it raises traffic warnings, so you don't get false alarms. How long that takes depends on the traffic of your site or app.

Once it is installed, Trackingplan starts discovering and documenting all the traffic you send to [all your analytics, product, and marketing stack](/integrations).

You can sit back while it builds your dashboard. Here is what happens along the way.

## Post-Install Essentials: A Guide to Next Steps

To show you what happens after the install, Trackingplan labels the specs of your properties with three states. They tell you which specs are being enforced and where each type and presence spec comes from.

### 1\. Warm-Up Phase

During the warm-up, Trackingplan watches how the traffic of your events behaves and analyzes the specs of each of your properties.

It is a learning phase. Trackingplan collects what it needs to understand what each piece of data means, find patterns and spot anomalies.

During this phase, Trackingplan raises no [traffic warnings](/docs/warning-and-updates), so you don't get false alarms while it learns your data and traffic patterns.

Some warnings don't need to wait, though. Trackingplan also checks the event and property specs your analytics and marketing tools recommend, and raises [Recommended Specs Warnings](/docs/warning-and-updates) when your sites or apps don't meet them. These warnings don't rely on a learning phase, so you can get them during the warm-up.

Today, Trackingplan supports [Google Analytics 4 Recommended Events](https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/ga4/reference/events), [Meta Standard Events](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/meta-pixel/reference#standard-events), and [TikTok Parameters](https://ads.tiktok.com/help/article/about-parameters) and [Standard Events](https://ads.tiktok.com/help/article/standard-events-parameters), with more coming soon. [Contact support](mailto:support@trackingplan.com) to tell us which tool you’d like to see next.

### 2\. Learnt by Trackingplan

**

After the warm-up, Trackingplan works out the data type and presence it expects for each of your properties, based on what it has seen.

### 3\. Set by User: Getting into Action

Now it is your turn. Adjust the type and presence constraints Trackingplan inferred as often as you need: click the dropdown and pick the constraint that fits your requirements.

Your team sees who made each change and when, so it is easy to work together and undo a change if needed.

### 4\. Set by Trackingplan’s Support Team

You can also see when Trackingplan’s Support Team has stepped in to help with a complex configuration or some fine-tuning, so your tracking fits your needs.

> You can also see who edited your specs while you explore your warnings, in the [Warning Management View](/changelog/warning-management-view). It keeps you on top of changes and your team in sync at a glance.
