Facebook Ads: Previewing Your Live Ad

See an example of how your live ad looks on Facebook from the Facebook Ads dashboard. If you are running a dynamic ad campaign, you will see an example of what an ad may look like to a subset of your audience. 
Note:
It can take up to 72 hours for Facebook to generate the live preview link if you are creating or editing a campaign.

To preview your live ad:

  1. Go to Facebook Ads in your site's dashboard.
  2. Click the Campaign Actions drop-down at the right.
  3. Click Preview ad.
  4. Click Preview on Facebook to view one of the ad variations on Facebook.
Notes:
  • When previewing your ad, you are only seen an example of what a variation of your ad may look like. With a dynamic campaign, there are several versions of your ad running at the same time updated according to the audience and their interests. 
  • The number of likes, views and comments on an ad may differ from the total stats of the campaign, as it is only one of the variations running simultaneously.
