Autofetch Facebook Ad Costs in AIO

Introduction

The Facebook ad costs autofetch feature allows you to pull data from campaigns running on Facebook into AIO and automatically transfer the values from the Facebook Spend field to the AIO Meta Spend or Costs fields. This guide will walk you through the process of connecting your Meta accounts to AIO to enable autofetch.

Adding Meta Ad Accounts

1. To view, add, and edit Social Profiles, go to Meta→Social Profiles.

2. Click the +Social Profile button to open the Add Meta Social Profile to AIO pop-up window. In this window, you can select the method for adding the social profile to the platform.

• By Meta Application method allows you to add an account using our official and verified Meta App. This is the most stable and reliable way to ensure uninterrupted data retrieval from your account.
• By Developer Token allows you to add an account using a developer token.

3. Complete the setup based on the method you selected:

By Meta Application

1. Enter a name and select AIO&Meta from the Application drop-down list. The Proxy field can be left empty.
2. Define the Pulling Interval. It can be set to either Auto 30 minutes or Manually. When set to Auto 30 minutes, data is automatically fetched from Facebook every 30 minutes. If Manually is selected, you can fetch data manually by right-clicking on the added social profile and selecting Add data.

The Commission field is optional. You can specify a commission on spend, and AIO will automatically add this percentage to the total cost amount. This feature is useful if you're using rented accounts and need to pay a commission on total spend to the account provider, allowing you to see more accurate cost figures within AIO.

3. Click the Confirm button.
4. Right-click the newly added account and select Connect. Then, insert the link from your anti-detect browser to authorize the account.

By Developer Token

1. Enter a name and insert your developer token into the Token field. The Proxy field can be left empty.

2. Define the Pulling Interval. It can be set to either Auto 30 minutes or Manually. When set to Auto 30 minutes, data is automatically fetched from Facebook every 30 minutes. If Manually is selected, you can fetch data manually by right-clicking on the added social profile and selecting Add data.

The Commission field is optional. You can specify a commission on spend, and AIO will automatically add this percentage to the total cost amount. This feature is useful if you're using rented accounts and need to pay a commission on total spend to the account provider, allowing you to see more accurate cost figures within AIO.

3. Click the Confirm button.

Transferring Costs from Meta to AIO Campaigns

Once you have added your Social Profiles and the fetched data (metrics and spend) is visible in the Meta tab, you can transfer advertising costs to your AIO campaigns. There are two methods available, depending on whether you use full tracking links (with the FB Ad ID parameter) or short links.

Meta Spend Field (for full links with FB Ad ID parameter)

If your tracking links contain the FB Ad ID parameter, AIO will automatically attribute costs to the corresponding Campaign and populate the Meta Spend field. No additional configuration is required.
1. Go to Campaigns and locate the Meta Spend metric. Other Meta metrics, such as Meta Clicks and Meta Impressions, are also available.

*If these metrics are not displayed by default, you can add them via Presets → Table Settings.

Cost Field

For short links that do not contain the FB Ad ID parameter, AIO cannot automatically attribute Meta costs to Visits and the corresponding Campaign. In this case, you must enable cost transfer manually within the Campaigns section.

Once enabled, the imported costs will be displayed in the Costs field.

1. Go to the Campaigns tab.

2. Right-click the desired campaign and select Edit Campaign.

3. Find the Cost Update Strategy section and select the desired strategy from the drop-down list:

• Manual — the default option. Costs can only be updated manually.
• Meta Account—AIO pulls the cost data directly from the selected FB Account ID and applies it to the corresponding AIO campaign on a 1-to-1 basis. It is especially useful when the Facebook tracking link is shortened and does not contain any FB parameters.
• AIO Meta — Visits must contain the FB Ad ID parameter in order to allocate costs correctly. However, when using full tracking links, we recommend relying on the Meta Spend metric, as it provides a simpler and more accurate way to attribute Meta costs.
• Meta Ad Set—AIO uses the FB Ad Set ID field to match and allocate Meta costs to the corresponding Campaign. To enable cost allocation, your tracking link must include the fb_ad_set_id={{adset.id}} parameter.
• Meta Campaign—AIO uses the FB Campaign ID field to match and allocate Meta costs to the corresponding Campaign. To enable cost allocation, your tracking link must include the fb_campaign_id={{campaign.id}} parameter.

4. Fill in the required fields depending on the strategy you selected:

• Meta Account: Select the Ad Account from which the cost for this campaign will be pulled.

• AIO Meta, Meta Ad Set, Meta Campaign: The required fields are already pre-selected.

5. Click Save to apply the changes. Costs will now be automatically pulled from Meta into this campaign.

Where to View the Fetched Data

If the social account is added successfully, the fetched statistics from Facebook will appear in the Meta Ad Accounts tab.

• If you use full tracking links that contain the FB Ad ID parameter, the advertising spend will be available in the Meta Spend metric.

• If you enabled Cost strategy within the AIO Campaign, the data will be applied to the Costs field of the respective AIO campaigns.

This difference does not affect past time periods (e.g., yesterday), but you may notice some fluctuations throughout the current day.
