Facebook Ads: Getting Admin Permissions for Facebook Business Manager
3 min read
Facebook operates on a 2-layer permission system to make sure each person in the account has the access they need. Before you can create a campaign you need to make sure you have two separate permissions on the Facebook side. You need to be the admin of both:
- The Facebook Page where you want to run the campaign (with 'full control' access)
- The Facebook Business Manager associated with that page
Not sure if you already have the necessary permissions?
