Facebook API at Both Site Level and Funnel Level
Billy Rickman
So I can see as of today, i can now put in my Facebook Pixel ID and token. Ive tested it and is working. The problem is though, its the same as the code, in so that once you connect the API, it then uses this for all of your funnels. This is very limiting and you should be able to connect both at site level and at funnel level. Very frustrating if you have multiple brands that you dont want to collect the same data for each brand onto your pixel!

Merged in a post:
CAPI for Facebook/Meta for individual funnels, not just the entire workspace.

As title says.

We are having the same problem. In other platforms we can use different Pixels (Datasets) for the Facebook CAPI per funnel so that we can segment our audiences and campaigns and take advantage of Facebook's algorithms.

Hey Tim Zhang Thank you for your feedback and adding this request. I have a few clarifying questions if you don't mind.
The way it is currently, it captures all event data across your workspace and over in Fb is where that data can be sorted.
- Can you share what exactly are you are trying to achieve?
- What settings are missing that you need to be able to do?
If you can explain the benefits of this feature a bit further that would be helpful in possibly seeing this come to the platform. Thanks!

Hi Dave.
I'm trying to split Datasets (formerly known as Pixels lol) between funnels in a single workspace.
Imagine each funnel is a different product or avatar. Or perhaps a different brand altogether I own. Maybe I'm dropshipping and testing 5 different products/brands. I'd like to not cross contaminate data from different funnels into the same Dataset, without creating new workspaces for each CAPI.
It would be helpful if there was an toggle option for each funnel to "Use Workspace Dataset CAPI" or Use separate Meta Dataset ID/CAPI for that individual funnel in the funnel settings.

Tim Zhang: Thanks for your reply. That's very helpful.
Correct me if I'm wrong, (meta ads is not my strong suit), isn't there a way to see only the data from a campaign or ad group? and you can send that campaign or ad group to a single funnel link?

You are correct. I'm referring to the CAPI, using a different Dataset/pixel for each funnel.
The Dataset (pixel), where conversions are being tracked should be able to split. It currently uses 1 pixel on 1 workspace for all funnels. (the current setting is on website settings, and it's global across the workspace for 1 pixel)
Let's say I'm using 1 Ad account for dropshipping. I have 3 single product dropshipping brands, 1 for baby products, 1 for kitchen stuff, and 1 for a fun lamp.
each has it's own domain, it's own branding, it's own social media, it's own funnel.
It's all just 1 funnel each. no blog, no website, etc.
each product/domain should have it's own pixel so it doesn't mix the audiences, you'd get more clean data. The pixel for the baby products can be better optimized for Lookalike audiences for people who purchase baby products.
the current setup is fine if it's all under 1 ecommerce site/store for 1 workspace. But if you want to treat 1 funnel as 1 business, it doesn't work anymore. Like the old CF classic.

Tim Zhang: Gotcha. Ok thanks for your response and clarity. For now, the best we can do is leave this request open so others can vote on it. Thanks again for contributing to our platform and being a part of our community.

Dear ClickFunnels Team,
I am reaching out to express a critical concern that is severely affecting our effectiveness in managing multiple brands through your platform. I deeply appreciate the ability to integrate a specific Facebook Pixel ID for each funnel, which is fundamental for accurate tracking and analysis. However, there is a limiting aspect in your system that is creating serious obstacles in our operations: the general configuration of the API for all funnels.
This limitation is particularly restrictive for those of us who manage several brands or focus on different market niches. The inability to assign and use a specific API for each funnel prevents efficient and segmented management of our digital strategies. The current general configuration of the API for all funnels leads to a confusing and ineffective integration of data, mixing information from different campaigns and brands, which distorts analysis and decision-making.
This situation puts us at a disadvantage, as we cannot fully exploit the customization and segmentation capabilities required by our digital strategies. The lack of a differentiated API for each funnel prevents us from optimizing our advertising campaigns, affecting the precision in targeting and analysis of the results.
It is imperative that ClickFunnels evolves to meet the needs of its more advanced and versatile users. Implementing a feature that allows the assignment of an individual API for each funnel would be a significant and highly valued change. This improvement would not only benefit current users like us but would also increase ClickFunnels' value in the market, attracting a segment of customers that requires more sophisticated and customized solutions.
We hope you take this feedback into account and act to improve this crucial aspect of your service. We thank you in advance for your attention to this matter and look forward to a prompt response and solution.
Sincerely,
José David Castellanos González
Yes!, I have the same problem!
I would like it to be as it was in CF classic, in each funnel you could connect different events and that's exactly what I need now.
