Authentication typically involves creating credentials on both sides and using an API key for Blogs API with the required scope. You’ll also obtain a Facebook access token with the necessary permissions for Custom Audiences. Keep credentials secure and rotate keys regularly. The Blogs API scope is emails/builder.readonly to access reader data for audience building. Store credentials securely and follow best practices for token rotation and least privilege.
End-to-end syncing typically relies on retrieving subscriber data via GET emails/builder and mapping it to a Facebook Custom Audience. You may also use POST /blogs/posts to push new blog data and engage audiences, plus GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors for segmentation. For slug checks and category/author data, include blogs/check-slug.readonly and GET /blogs/categories as needed.
Yes, you can map fields such as email, firstName, and lastName to Facebook’s Custom Audience attributes. You can also include location or other profile fields as available, while ensuring privacy compliance. Carefully map data and honor user preferences and applicable data protection laws.
Data sync can be near real-time if you set up triggers and webhooks, but it may be scheduled or event-driven depending on your configuration. Real-time behavior depends on your endpoint choices and polling frequency. Test the cadence to match your campaign needs and system constraints.
Facebook deduplicates by email; ensure you map to a stable key, typically the email field. If a user unsubscribes on the source, suppress from audiences and respect opt-out signals. Maintain clean data hygiene to maximize deliverability and compliance.
You can create Custom Audiences from emails, engagement data, and segment by category or author. Audiences can be used across campaigns and ad sets. Always review platform policies and best practices for audience creation and use.
Check connector logs and verify credentials and permissions if an endpoint fails. Retry with backoff, and test endpoints individually in a sandbox before going live. Review error messages, adjust mappings, and re-run the sync once resolved.
