Meta Account Integration with GoWit
This document outlines the step-by-step process a marketplace account follows to connect their Meta Account (Facebook & Instagram) to the GoWit platform. This is a critical first step for enabling Off-Site Ads.
Part 1: Connecting & Authorizing the Meta Account
This part of the flow involves the user granting GoWit permission to access their advertising assets through a standard, secure Facebook authentication process.
Step 1: Navigate to Off-Site Settings
- From the main GoWit dashboard, click on Settings in the left-hand navigation menu.
- Then select Off-Site Settings from the submenu.
Step 2: Initiate Connection
The user is presented with a clear call-to-action.
Click the blue “Login with Facebook” button to begin the process.
Step 3: Authenticate with Facebook
A secure Facebook pop-up window appears.
The user is prompted to “Continue as [Their Name]”.
Click this button to confirm your identity.
Step 4: Grant Asset Permissions
Facebook will guide the user through a series of permission screens. The user must select the specific assets they want GoWit to manage:
- Choose the Page: Select your Facebook Page.
- Choose the Business: Select your Meta Business Account.
- Choose the Instagram Account: Select your Instagram account.
Step 5: Review and Save Permissions
- Facebook presents a summary of the access GoWit is requesting. This includes permissions to manage ads, access insights, and more.
- Click “Save” to confirm and grant these permissions.
- A final confirmation message appears — “You’ve now linked GoWit to Facebook.”
The user clicks “Got it.” - The user is redirected back to the GoWit platform, where a success message confirms that the Meta account is successfully connected.
Part 2: Configuring Meta Assets in GoWit
After the account is connected, the user needs to specify which assets they want to actively use for their Meta campaigns within GoWit.
Step 1: Select Primary Ad Account
Back on the Off-Site Settings page, new dropdown menus are now visible:
- Select your Marketplace Location. This will be used as a primary targeting location for the campaigns.
- Select the Ad Account you want to use for your campaigns.
- Click the “Save” button.
Step 2: Set Campaign Identity
After saving the ad account, the Identity section appears:
- Select the specific Facebook Page and Instagram Account that will represent your marketplace in the ads.
- This ensures brand consistency across campaigns.
Step 3: Connect the Meta Pixel
The Meta Pixel section appears next:
- Select the correct Pixel from the dropdown.
Step 4: Finalize Setup
- Click the final “Save” button at the top of the page.
- A success message confirms “Settings saved successfully.”
Flow Complete ✅
The integration is now complete.
The marketplace’s Meta Account, Ad Account, Brand Identity (Facebook/Instagram pages), and Meta Pixel are all configured within GoWit.
They are now ready to create, manage, and optimize Off-Site campaigns directly from the platform.
