Connect Meta Ads
Connect your Meta ad accounts so Clakta reads your campaigns and spend, even when the account belongs to someone else.
Connecting Meta brings your campaigns and daily spend into Clakta. To know which ad brought each sale, you also need to tag your ad URLs.
Connect
- Go to Project settings → Ad accounts.
- Choose Meta Ads, then Connect account.
- Click Connect with Facebook and follow Facebook's window.
- Allow access to every ad account you want Clakta to read.
When it works, the window shows Connected and your ad accounts appear in the list.
Facebook lets you pick which ad accounts to share. Anything you leave unchecked stays invisible to Clakta, and adding it later means connecting again. Select all of them the first time.
Connect an account you don't have access to
Useful for agencies, or when the ad accounts belong to another Facebook login.
In the connect window, choose Share link. Clakta creates a link you send to whoever has access. They open it, click Continue with Meta Ads and allow access, and the accounts appear in your project. They don't need a Clakta login.
The same link also works if you need to connect from another browser where the right Facebook account is logged in.
The link works for one hour and only once. If the person sees "Link unavailable", create a new one.
Next: tag your ads
Connecting alone gives you cost without conversions. On the Ad accounts page, choose Set up UTMs for the account and copy the tracking key from the Manual tab. Then paste it into the URL parameters field of each ad in Meta Ads Manager. See Tag your ad URLs.
