This guide contains all permissions and requirements for connecting your Facebook Insights data to Supermetrics.
You can connect to data sources from the Data sources page on the Supermetrics Hub. On the Hub, you can also share an authentication link to connect to a data source you don't have direct access to.
After you connect to the data source on the Hub, you can use the data source connection in all available destinations.
Required permissions
To connect Supermetrics to Facebook Insights, you need Administrator access to the Pages you want to pull data from. If you're connected with Business Manager, you'll need at least Page editor access to those Pages.
