Explore our step-by-step guide on seamlessly integrating Bubble.io with Facebook Ads to optimize your ad campaigns and reach wider audiences.
Facebook Ads is an advertising platform offered by Facebook that allows businesses and individuals to promote their products or services to the vast Facebook audience. The platform operates on a pay-per-click model, meaning an advertiser only pays when someone clicks on their ad. Through advanced targeting options, it allows advertisers to reach a specific audience based on demographics, interests, and behavior. Facebook Ads can appear in various formats, including video, image, and carousel, and in different placements, such as Facebook news feed, Instagram feed, or Stories.

Starting a new venture? Need to upgrade your web or mobile app? RapidDev builds Bubble apps with your growth in mind.
This guide will show you how to integrate Bubble.io with Facebook Ads. The process is straightforward and doesn't require any coding knowledge. However, it is important to note that Bubble.io doesn't directly integrate with Facebook Ads. You need to use a third-party tool like Zapier or Integromat that can help connect the two platforms.
For this guide, we will use Zapier as the third-party tool. Make sure to set up an account on both Bubble.io and Zapier before following this guide.
Step 1: Create a new app on Bubble.io
Login to your Bubble.io account and click on the "New Application" button to create a new app. Enter the app name, choose the plan, and click "Create".
Step 2: Set up API workflows in Bubble
Navigate to the Backend section, go to the "+" icon in the API section, and click on "API Workflows". Click on "+ New Endpoint" to create a new workflow. For this guide, name it "fbads". In the "fbads" workflow, we will add actions to be performed whenever this workflow is triggered via Zapier. The actions can be updating the database or sending notifications.
In the parameters section, add parameters that match the data you want to send from Facebook ads.
Step 3: Enable Data API
You need to make your app data available through API. To enable it, go to "Settings > General". Scroll down to the API section and check the "This app exposes a Data API" box.
Step 4: Make note of your Bubble.io API key
Go to "Settings > API" and you will see "Generated private key". Copy this key as you will need it when setting up the Zapier part.
Step 5: Log into your Zapier account
Login to your account and click on the "Make a Zap" button to start the integration process.
Step 6: Define the trigger event
Search for Facebook Lead Ads in the search bar and select it. Next, define the trigger event, which is often "New Lead". Click on "Continue".
Step 7: Connect your Facebook account
Click on "Connect an Account" and login to your Facebook account to authorize Zapier. Once connected, continue to the next step.
Step 8: Set up trigger
Choose the Facebook page and forms for your Ad. After this, you will need to test the trigger to ensure that Zapier is receiving the right data from Facebook.
Step 9: Define the Action in Zapier
After successfully setting up the trigger, define the action that will be done in Bubble.io every time there's a new lead in Facebook Lead Ads. Search for Bubble.io in the search bar and click "Continue".
Step 10: Connect your Bubble.io account
Select "Add a New Account", you will then be prompted to input your Bubble.io API key, copy the key, and paste it here. After this, select "Yes, Continue".
Step 11: Set up Bubble.io Event
Select the Bubble.io app and the workflow endpoint ("fbads") created earlier. Then, you are required to match up the fields. Set the parameters you have set in the "fbads" workflow in Bubble.
Step 12: Test your Zap
After setting up everything, test your Zap to make sure that data comes through from your Facebook Ads into Bubble.io as expected. If it works, turn on the Zap so it runs whenever there's a new lead in your Facebook Lead Ads.
Step 13: Monitor your app in Bubble.io
After turning on your Zap, the data will automatically be sent from your Facebook Ad to your Bubble.io app.
Remember, you can always modify what your Zap does by going back into your Zapier account and adjusting as necessary, whether that is changing the integration or trigger, or adding new actions.
And there you go! If you have followed all the steps, you should now have integrated Bubble.io with Facebook Ads.
Scenario: A global e-commerce company is launching a new product and wants to directly target potential customers via Facebook advertisements. They use Bubble.io to design and develop a specific campaign page for this new product to provide more detailed information and encourage users to purchase. Integrating Facebook Ads with Bubble.io will allow them to tie their paid marketing efforts directly to conversions, streamlining their sales funnel.
Solution: Integrating Bubble.io with Facebook Ads
Campaign Page Creation: The e-commerce company uses Bubble.io to design a unique campaign page showcasing the new product. This includes a purchase button, which would trigger the tracking of successful conversions.
Setting Up The Integration: The Facebook Ads plugin is installed on Bubble.io and configured using their Facebook Ads API key. Also, they set up workflows within Bubble.io to trigger when a user makes a purchase using the purchase button on the campaign page.
Data Sync Workflow: When a purchase is made on the campaign page, the workflow is triggered. The user data (e.g., customer ID, product details, and transaction amount) is automatically relayed to Facebook Ads using the configured Facebook Ads plugin action. This 'conversion event' is then logged within Facebook Ads.
Advertisements on Facebook: The e-commerce company uses Facebook Ads to create targeted advertisements based on customer behaviors and demographics. They also set up a 'Custom Audience' of people who have shown interest in the specific product by interacting with the campaign page.
Monitoring and Analytics: Facebook Ads integration allows for comprehensive tracking of the advertisements' effectiveness and conversions. The company can monitor the performance of their product campaign and optimize their marketing strategies based on the data.
Benefits:
