10. The integration process has been completed successfully. From now on, all forms filled out for the connected pages will be sent to the YouLead system. Please remember to add rules that will handle the data sent from Facebook correctly.

For new contacts acquired through Facebook Lead Ads, the default email status is set to “to activation”, meaning that immediate communication with contacts obtained in this way is not possible. Depending on the marketing consents provided in the Lead Ads form, it is possible to automatically set the status to “active”. If the consents given in the form allow communication via email or SMS, you should add the relevant consents in the YL panel (Settings/Consents) and specify which statuses should be set after receiving specific consents.

To correctly map all fields from Lead Ads ads to contact attributes, make sure that the field identifiers in the ads match the attribute aliases in YouLead (Settings/Attributes).

After adding parameters to the form with the names: utm_source, utm_campaign, utm_medium, utm_term, utm_content, the specified values will be passed to YL and recognized as UTMs. If these parameters are not set, the default values will be sent: utm_source=facebook.com, utm_medium=paid.

After completing the integration of Facebook Lead Ads ads with YouLead, you can test the correctness of data transmission. To do this, you can use the dedicated tool provided by Facebook:
