FAQs for Facebook Ads
Why are the Action Breakdown and Action Attribution fields greyed out?
These fields will only be available if you choose an action metric from the Metrics list.
I have multiple Facebook Ad accounts mapped to my Facebook account. How can I pull in the data using Coefficient?
When you begin a Coefficient import from Facebook Ads - “Start from scratch”, Coefficient will check the Ads accounts that you have associated with your Facebook account. If we detect more than one Ad account, we will present you with an option to pick the Ad account you want to use for your Coefficient import. (If you only have one Ad account, we will skip this step)
This error keeps coming up in my Facebook Ads imports. Why does this keep happening?
|
Due to some API limitations within the Facebook Ads API, you will need to “Reauthorize” your data source connection every 60 days. To “Reauthorize” your connection, click the “Re-connect Facebook Ads” link in the message to log in and authorize your account again. |
I am getting a "Facebook Ads API experienced an issue processing your request" error when I create an import. How do I fix this?
|
This error, originating from the Facebook API, typically occurs due to the size of the requested data. To resolve this issue, try reducing the date range for the import. You can create one import for a specific date range and another for the remaining dates as a workaround. This approach helps you stay within the API limitations. |
