Solution
How do you set up the connection to Facebook in ADvendio?
In order to start using the ADvendio Facebook Integration, you will need to set up a new record of Facebook connection in ADvendio. Please, follow the steps below:
In the main Advendio menu type “Connections”
Create a new connection record by selecting the option “New”
Select “Facebook” as a new record type
A screen “New connection: Facebook” will open, enter data in the field “User Name” (mandatory) and fill in all the rest information (if necessary) and press Save. It will create a new connection
Open the new connection record you just created from the list
In the upper right corner, click on "Create OAuth Token"
When required, enter your Facebook username and click Submit
Under "Create OAuth Token", click on "Link to Third Party Platform". This will redirect you to the Facebook login page
Log into your Facebook account and accept the authentication request
Copy the authorization code
Return to ADvendio and paste the copied authorization code into the provided field
A pop-up will confirm whether the authorization was successful or not
Possible field values and explanation when creating a Facebook connection:
Field value | Description |
|---|---|
User name | Enter your user name used for Ad server login |
Additional User Name | You can enter additional user name |
Access Token | The access token authorisation code will be stored here |
Record Type: FACEBOOK | “Facebook” record type is shown by default as it previously selected in set up process |
Active | You should check this box to activate the ad server login |
Description | You can enter additional text to describe login record |
Related Connection | You can use this field to connected with related AdServer |
You can use a regular Facebook User Account, if you work with multiple people and they require access to different data (e.g. Advertiser Ad Accounts). You will need individual connection records for each user.
You have the option to create a Facebook System User only for the ADvendio Integration, please contact your Technical Account Manager or our Customer Success Team for help.
Data to import from Facebook
Once authentification is obtained and Facebook Connection is established for the next step we would strongly recommend importing Facebook data into ADvendio for smooth media advertising and buying activities.
By importing this data you can decide which Facebook information to use in ADvendio features and which to leave out.
This can be implemented at a later stage but is recommended to perform sooner to have the access to all capacities of the feature.
We would recommend importing the following information from the platform:
Import Advertisers (Ad Accounts)
Import Custom Audiences
Import Inventory (Promoted Pages in order to use them for certain bookings)
Import Geo-Targeting
