Published on Feb 28th, 2024

Integrating Facebook Lead Ads with Zapier streamlines your marketing efforts by automatically sending leads to your CRM, email marketing service, or other management tools. Here's a step-by-step guide to link your Facebook Leads campaign with Zapier effectively:


Step 1: Set Up Your Facebook Lead Ads Campaign


Before linking to Zapier, ensure you have an active Facebook Leads campaign. Design your form with the necessary fields that you intend to collect from your leads.


Step 2: Create a Zapier Account


If you don't have an account, sign up at Zapier's website. An email address and a password are all you need to start automating your workflows.


Step 3: Choose the Facebook Lead Ads Integration


In your Zapier dashboard, click on Make a Zap. Select Facebook Lead Ads as the Trigger App. You'll need to connect your Facebook account to allow Zapier access to your lead information.


Step 4: Set Up the Trigger


Select New Lead as the trigger event. Then, choose the Facebook Page and form associated with your Leads campaign. Test this step to ensure Zapier can receive data from Facebook.


Step 5: Choose an Action App


Now, decide where you want to send your leads. You can choose from CRM systems like Salesforce, email marketing tools like Mailchimp, or even Google Sheets for a simple database.


Step 6: Configure the Action


Depending on your chosen app, you'll need to map the fields from your Facebook Leads form to the corresponding fields in your action app. Carefully align all necessary data points to ensure accurate data transfer.


Step 7: Test Your Zap


Run a test to confirm that the data from a new lead is correctly sent to your chosen app. Check for any discrepancies and correct them if necessary.


Step 8: Activate Your Zap


Once you are satisfied with the setup, turn your Zap on. Your new leads will now automatically flow from Facebook Lead Ads to wherever you need them.


Remember, a successful integration also depends on maintaining data privacy and compliance with regulations such as GDPR. Always handle lead data responsibly.


Utilizing these steps, you can optimize the potential of your Facebook Leads campaign, ensuring a seamless flow of valuable lead data directly to your business applications through Zapier.
