Integrate with Facebook

Here's How to Get Data from Facebook into Bionic for Agencies.

The integration with Facebook will enable you to connect with Facebook via an API to automate the connection process and data delivery.

In this help article, we'll cover the steps on how to connect Facebook:

  1. Setup Facebook Integration

Setup Facebook Integration

 The connection to Facebook is completed during the integration setup process. Facebook requires a separate connection for each advertiser account (think of each as a unique account number), so a separate integration must be created for each one.
 

If you have an advertiser in Bionic with sub-advertisers, only one Facebook integration is needed for all of them, provided they all use the same Facebook account. 

  1. Go to your Administration section.
  2. Select the Integrations Tab.
  3. Click on the Add Integration Button.
  4. Select Facebook.
  5. Press Next.
  6. Press Connect.
  7. Enter the login credentials that has access to the account.
  8. Click Login on the Facebook login prompt.
  9. Select the Advertiser Account to tie the connection with.
  10. Identify the Time To Run.
  11. Enter an Integration Name. (NOTE: This should be named clearly to define which advertiser account it is related to.)
  12. Select the appropriate Available To permission: Select All Advertisers if this integration will be used for more than one advertiser or Select a Specific Advertiser if ONLY THIS advertiser will use this integration.
  13. Press Add Integration.
