This process ensures that each lead is shown as a 'Lead event' within Cometly, providing valuable insights into your ad performance.

Important: The Meta profile that was used to connect the ad account in Cometly to your space must have:

1. Full access to manage the page

2. Assigned to the page in the Lead Access section under Data Sources

    1. Access Cometly’s Meta Sync Feature: Go to the same integration settings where you initially synced your Facebook profile.

    2. Resyncing Your Meta Profile: Click on the option to resync your Meta (Facebook) profile. If you want to connect a business manager or page, you need to Edit previous settings

Check Business Manager Settings To Ensure Proper Access

  • You must ensure Cometly has Leads Access to your page and ensure your Meta profile connected has Leads Access as well to your page.

  • Navigate to your Business Settings in your Meta Business Manager, click Integrations > Leads Access

  • Click CRMs, if Cometly isn't listed for your selected page, click Assign CRMs and assign Cometly

  • Next click People, and check if you are listed there. If you do not see yourself there, you need to click Assign people and grant yourself the permission. You must be an admin on the page to do this action.

By following these steps, you can efficiently track lead forms from Meta, ensuring each lead is accurately attributed to the corresponding ad in Cometly. This setup not only simplifies your lead management process but also provides valuable insights for optimizing your ad campaigns.
