Facebook Ads Insights (source)

Integrating Facebook Ads Insights into GearPlug allows you to extract the necessary data to assess your campaigns’ performance, importing their metrics into a database.

As a source, Facebook Ads Insights offers 4 actions. Each one draws information at a different level:

  • Ad account: Data from your entire account.

  • Campaign: Data from one campaign.

  • Adset: Data from one adset.

  • Ads: Data from one ad.

Follow the steps below to set up your source Plug.

  1. Select Facebook Ads Insights as your source app in the “Gears” section in your GearPlug app. Click “Create.”

  1. Pick the connection you want to use, or create a new one. Click “Continue.” GearPlug will run a quick test to verify everything works properly.

GearPlug will check whether the connection functions properly before moving on. If it doesn’t, you won’t be able to continue setting up your Gear.

  1. Choose the action according to the data level you want to extract: your account, a campaign, an adset, or an ad. Fill in the required fields, including the ad account, from which day, month, and year you want to cover, and how often you want to draw data. Click “Create.”

  1. Review the imported data to make sure everything works properly. Then, click “OK” to finish setting up your source Plug.

Empty fields: Under the imported record, you’ll find a drop-down list of “Empty Fields.” There, you’ll find fields you can import—but weren’t used in your record.
