What is the Facebook Pixel?
The Facebook Custom Audience Pixel makes conversion tracking, optimization, and remarketing easier than ever. Once it's placed on your website, you can do the following on Facebook and Instagram:
Measure cross-device conversions: See how your customers are moving between devices before they convert.
Optimize delivery to people likely to take action: Ensure your ads are being seen by people most likely to take the action you want them to take, like make a purchase or fill out a form.
Automatically build audiences for website visitors to retarget: Create Custom Audiences for people who take specific actions on your website, like visiting a product page, adding a product to their cart, or purchasing a product.
Create Lookalike Audiences. Find more people who are similar to your best customers.
Run dynamic product ads. Create relevant and timely ads on Facebook based on the products people have visited on your website.
Access Audience Insights. Get rich insights about the people who visit your website.
🔔 Note: This feature hasn’t reached the Linktree app just yet, but you can still add a Facebook Pixel in your web browser by following the steps below.

Standard Events
Once you've put your Facebook Pixel ID in the field provided, the Facebook Pixel will be fired on every Linktree profile visit and will track the audience for you to use on Facebook.
The following pixel events will fire:
On every Linktree view - PageView event will fire.
On every link click - linkClick event will fire.
🔔 Note: If you need to check for event deduplication for your linkClick, select Event Details on the lower right-hand corner and then the Event overview option.
If you're using the Facebook Pixel Helper, this is what the tool will show after a user has clicked a link on your Linktree.
Troubleshoot

You'll see a warning noting that there is a new domain sending data. Click Learn how to fix this issue at the bottom of the page.
Select the Manage Traffic Permissions button, which will take you to the Settings tab of your Events Manager.
