Install Facebook Pixel to your storefront
Before you can add the Facebook Conversions API to your theme, you'll need to install your Facebook Pixel.
Generate your Conversions API Access Token
Go to your Facebook Pixel Page and from there navigate to the Settings Tab and scroll down to the Conversions API section and click on the Create Access Token button:
Follow the prompt and when your access token appears make sure to copy it.
Add the Access Token to your theme
First, open the "Design" tab on the main Cratejoy sidebar
Next, open the Designer for the theme you want to change
Next, open the SEO Settings section
Next click on the "Site Settings" section and paste the Pixel ID into the "Facebook Access Token" field.
That's it! Let's make sure to save our changes.
Test your Setup (Optional)
On your FB Events Manager page go to the "Test Events" tab and under Test Server Events copy the code needed eg: TEST123456
Now on your domain go to "yourdomain.com/fb/TEST123456". Replace yourdomain.com with your actual store url, and TEST123456 with your actual test code from the Events Manager test page.
You'll see a screen like this:
Now on your test tab you'll be able to see the event processed.
That's it! You've tested your setup successfully
