Meta Integration

AdTarget sends conversion events to Meta when users join your Telegram channel. This helps Meta’s algorithm optimize your ad delivery for real conversions.

How It Works

  1. Visitor clicks your ad and lands on your page
  2. AdTarget captures the Meta click ID (fbclid)
  3. They join your Telegram channel
  4. AdTarget sends a conversion event to Meta via CAPI

This creates a closed feedback loop: Meta learns which ad clicks lead to Telegram joins.

Why Use CAPI?

Browser tracking is unreliable. Ad blockers, iOS privacy, and browser restrictions break traditional pixel tracking.

CAPI is server-side. AdTarget sends conversion data directly to Meta’s servers, bypassing browser limitations.

Better optimization. More accurate conversion data means Meta’s algorithm can find better audiences for your ads.

What You’ll Need

  • A Meta Business account
  • A Meta Pixel ID
  • A Conversions API access token (System User token)

Quick Setup

  1. Set up your Meta Pixel in AdTarget
  2. Configure CAPI events to send

Conversion Events

AdTarget can send these events to Meta:

EventWhen SentDescription
LeadUser joins channelPrimary conversion event
PurchaseUser joins channelRevenue-focused campaigns (includes value and currency)
CompleteRegistrationUser joins channelAlternative conversion type
SubscribeUser joins channelSubscription-focused campaigns
CustomUser joins channelCustom event name for specific campaign needs

You choose which event type to send based on your campaign objectives.


Attribution Window

Tracked invite links expire after 7 days. If a user joins using the tracked link within that window, the conversion is attributed. If they join after the link expires or via other means, the join appears as organic.


FAQ

Does AdTarget replace my existing Meta Pixel?

No. Keep your existing pixel for website events. AdTarget adds Telegram conversion events that your pixel can’t track.

What data does AdTarget send to Meta?

AdTarget sends these parameters via CAPI:

  • event_name — The configured event type (Lead, Purchase, etc.)
  • event_time — Timestamp of the join
  • action_source — Always “website”
  • event_source_url — Your landing page URL
  • fbc — Facebook Click cookie (contains the fbclid from the ad click)
  • fbp — Facebook Browser ID cookie
  • external_id — Telegram user ID (SHA-256 hashed)
  • client_ip_address — Visitor’s IP address
  • client_user_agent — Visitor’s browser user agent
  • value, currency, content_name — If configured per channel

Is this GDPR compliant?

Yes. AdTarget follows Meta’s data processing guidelines. No personal data is stored beyond what’s needed for attribution.
