Setup and Diagnostics

The Integration of the Facebook Ad Account needs to be active

It is necessary to check that the Facebook Ad Account connected in Settings > integrations has admin permissions.

Please Note: You need to be a page admin or ask a page admin to assign you as that role. If you have transitioned to the New Pages Experience you need task access.

Before we get started, please review the notes below:

If you are running traffic to a landing page make sure you setup your Facebook pixel and Facebook Conversion API in Workflows

Don't use any special characters or emojis in the UTM parameters or any parameter that needs to be tracked

Entry Points:
