Set up events

After you add the Meta Pixel base code to your website you can set up events to measure the actions you care about, like making a purchase. You can do this by manually installing the code or by using the point-and-click Event Setup Tool. Then, make sure that your Meta Pixel is working correctly.

You can use one Pixel across your whole website, including multiple pages of your website.

If you use the Meta Pixel to share events with Meta, we recommend that you also use the Conversions API. The Conversions API works with your Meta Pixel to help improve the performance and measurement of your Meta ad campaigns. Learn more about the Conversions API.

Note: Apple’s iOS 14 changes require apps in the App Store that engage in what Apple defines as “tracking” to show a prompt to iOS 14.5 and later users in accordance with their AppTrackingTransparency framework. These changes impact how Meta receives and processes events from tools like the Meta Pixel. If you optimize, target or report on web events from Meta Pixel or any of our other business tools, you can take steps to update your event setup and manage these changes. Learn more.
