Connect Facebook with SegMetrics: Facebook Instant Forms (Lead Tracking)

Facebook Instant Forms, also known as Facebook Lead Ads, provides an easy way to generate marketing leads without the users ever having to leave Facebook. However, as the leads never leave Facebook's site, tracking can become a challenge. By using Zapier together with your Instant Forms and Email Marketing Platform, it's easy to get your Facebook Leads into SegMetrics!

How the Integration Works

Since Facebook Instant Forms, also known as Facebook Lead Ads, don't automatically import into your Email Marketing Platform, you most likely already have a Zap set up to send the Leads into your marketing funnel. You can either create a new Zap, or add a second action onto the existing app to send that data into SegMetrics. We'll assume that you already have a Zap set up to send your Facebook Leads into your marketing system.

Configure the Facebook Instant Forms

To connect Facebook Instant Forms to your Zapier Account:

  1. Choose "Facebook Instant Forms" as the Trigger App
  2. Select "New Lead Trigger" and click "Save + Continue"
  3. Choose the Lead Ads Account you will use, and click "Save + Continue"
  4. Choose the Facebook Account, and Form from the dropdown, and click "Save + Continue"
  5. Click "Continue" to finish configuring Facebook
