In this article, you will learn how to add a Facebook™ pixel API to help improve the performance and management of your Facebook™ Ad Campaigns.  This will allow you to add your tracking pixels directly to a domain as required by Facebook™. Requires Business Administrator Access**

You will also be able to set which Facebook™ Events you want to fire on each page within your funnels. Learn more about the Facebook™ Pixel Updates for Apple's IOS 14 Requirements .



Important Video Note: At the time of creating, the video shows a purchase event as an option (at 5:40) in the event menu. The event menu no longer displays the purchase event, as it is automatically sent via the integration.

Prior to getting started, you will need the following:


Important Note: Domains purchased through ClickFunnels must use the root domain and not a Subdomain to set up the Facebook Conversion Integration.

Important Note: The pixel can be added to any domains that have been added to your ClickFunnels account. (Does not include the default ClickFunnels subdomain) This will trigger one pixel allowing you to track page views for all funnels using the custom domain as required by Facebook™.

Step 3: Add Conversion Events To Funnel Page(s)

  1. Select your Funnel.
  2. Click on Settings .
  3. Select your Domain .
  4. Click on Save .

  5. Select the funnel page/step after the conversion event/goal.
  6. Click on Edit Page .
  7. Click on Settings .
  8. Click on Facebook™ Pixel .
  9. Select the Facebook™ Event (only one event may be selected per page)
  10. Click on Save.


Important Note: You will want to paste the appropriate pixel code on the correct page types for tracking. For Page Views - Place the even on that specific funnel step. For Leads - Add the event on your Thank You page or page after collecting leads. For Purchases - It is tracked automatically, and therefore, no additions need to be made.


Important Video Note: At the time of creating, the video shows a purchase event as an option. It is no longer displayed in the menu as all purchases from an account that has pixels enabled. It will automatically send the conversions on all purchases made and does not need to be selected.

Important Note: The Facebook Pixel Helper does NOT work with Conversions API integration. This is by design on Facebook's end, not ClickFunnels. You'll need to test event tracking inside of Facebook's Events Manager settings. Click here to learn more about testing for Facebook's Conversions API.
