Connect Meta Ads

Connecting Meta Ads lets Glimmio read your campaigns, ad sets, ads, and performance insights, and execute approved changes via the Meta Marketing API.

Before you start

  • You must be an Admin or Owner of the Meta Business Manager that contains the ad account you want to connect.
  • The ad account must have a spend limit configured and active billing.
  • You must be an Admin or Owner in Glimmio.

Steps

  1. Go to Settings → Integrations.
  2. Click Connect next to Meta Ads.
  3. You will be redirected to Facebook to authorize Glimmio. Log in with the Facebook account that is an admin of your Business Manager.
  4. Grant the requested permissions (see below).
  5. On return, select the specific Ad Account and Meta Pixel to link to this Business Account.
  6. Click Save. An initial data sync will begin automatically.

Permissions required

Glimmio requests the following Meta permissions:

  • ads_management — Read and manage your Meta Ads campaigns
  • ads_read — Read ad performance insights
  • business_management — Access Business Manager account information
  • pages_read_engagement — Read your connected Facebook Page information (for ad creative context)

We do not request permissions to post on your behalf, access your personal Facebook data, or read your private messages.

How to disconnect

  1. Go to Settings → Integrations → Meta → Disconnect.
  2. Confirm disconnection. All API calls to Meta will immediately stop.
  3. Optionally, revoke Glimmio's access from your Meta Business Settings → Connected Apps for complete removal.

Reconnecting an expired connection

If your connection shows "Expired", click Reconnect next to Meta Ads in Settings → Integrations and follow the same OAuth flow. Your historical data in Glimmio is preserved.
