Follow the “Create a a Facebook pixel” section here https://www.facebook.com/business/help/952192354843755?id=1205376682832142

These steps are:

  • Go to Events Manager
  • Click “+ Connect data sources”
  • In the “Connect a new data source” dialog, select Web > Facebook pixel > Enter name, leave easy setup blank > Continue
  • A dialog will appear asking how you want to add the pixel to the website, you close this using the X in the top right.

To retrieve your Pixel Tracking ID, select the pixel you just created, then go to Settings and copy the value under “Pixel ID”. You can now enter this ID in the backoffice.

  • Ensure that your device does not have an adblocker or tracking protection enabled.
  • Please ensure that DNT / Do Not Track is not enabled in your web browser.
