Facebook Lead Ads not triggering despite successful tests


This post was split from topic: 

 

I have the same problem of zaps not running despite successful tests. Some Zaps link to Facebook leads, some to Moosend, some to Podium. Yet none of them work. I’ve followed all your recommendations above and have not found what the issue was.

Just following up here as it appears that @sv_3 also reached out to our Support team who were able to help get things sorted. I’ll share the suggestion from the support team, that allowed @sv_3 to fix Zapier’s CRM access, in case it’s helpful to anyone that stumbles across this thread in the future:

“Can you submit a test lead using a unique email address to check the permissions from Facebook's side?

  1. Go to Facebook's Leads Ads Testing Tool (https://developers.facebook.com/tools/lead-ads-testing/) and select your "Page" and "Form".
  2. Click on "Delete Lead". (Don't worry! It won't delete any live leads, just Facebook's example lead.)
  3. Click on "Preview Form".
  4. Fill out your form like normal, but use test+contact@zapier.com as the email address.
  5. Click the "Track Status" button.
  6. Review the section below "Track Status" for any errors or messages.
  7. Send me a screenshot of the results.

 
If you see a message like "CRM access has been revoked from Lead Access Manager" in the test results, you should be able to fix the issue by following these steps: https://www.facebook.com/business/help/540596413257598

Hope that helps! 🙂
