How to connect your Meta account

Updated on 2026-08-26

Applies to: AdWing settings

Connect your Meta ad account to AdWing so you can view and manage your campaigns.

Before you start

  • A Meta user access token with the ads_read and ads_management permissions, generated from the Graph API Explorer.

Steps

  1. Go to app.adwing.co and log in.
  2. In the sidebar, click Settings.
  3. Find the Meta (Facebook) Connection card.
  4. Paste your token into the Paste your Meta User Access Token field.
  5. Click Connect Meta.
  6. On success you'll see "Meta connected! Ad accounts synced." and your accounts appear under Connected Ad Accounts.
  7. Click Sync from Meta from the Dashboard or Campaigns page to pull in your campaigns.

Result: your Meta campaigns, ad sets and ads appear in AdWing.

Note: connecting is a token paste, not a Facebook pop-up login. AdWing does not currently run an OAuth authorisation flow, so there is no Meta consent window to approve.

If it doesn't work

What you see What it means What to do
A red error after clicking Connect Meta The token was rejected — it may be expired, or missing a required permission Generate a fresh token with both ads_read and ads_management, then paste it again
Connect Meta is greyed out The token field is empty Paste a token first
Connected Ad Accounts says "No accounts connected yet" The token connected but no ad accounts resolved against it Confirm the token's Meta user has access to the ad account you expect
Sync takes longer than a minute Normal for larger accounts with many ads Wait for the success toast rather than refreshing the page
The first action after a period of inactivity feels slow The first request after several minutes idle can take 5–10 seconds while the service wakes up Wait a moment and try again — it only happens once

There is currently no "disconnect" button. To change the connection, paste a different token.
