# How to Use the Channel Settings Panel

## Check a client's ad accounts, pixels, catalogs and Google setup in one panel, and start setup for any channel the client doesn't have yet.

The Channel Settings panel shows how a client account is connected on each ad channel. Links in the panel open the asset straight in the channel's own business tools, so you skip the hunt through menus.

### How to Open Channel Settings

1. Pick the client in the account dropdown at the top of the page.
2. Click the sliders icon in the top bar. On a small screen, open the **⋮** menu and choose **Channel settings**.

The panel opens on the right. **Website** opens the client's site in a new tab, and **Account Settings** opens the client's settings page.

The tabs are **Meta**, **Snapchat**, **TikTok**, **Pinterest**, **Google** and **SEO**. Agencies with Reddit also see a **Reddit** tab.

💡 Note: Channel Settings is for agency users. Client logins don't see it.

### Meta Tab

Buttons at the top of the tab:

- **Business Manager access**: shows whether your connection user has access to the client's Business Manager. Click it for details, such as **You need to accept the invitation!**
- **Assign Permissions**: give your user access to the client's assets. Pick **All Assets**, or choose the Page, Ad Account, Pixel or Catalogs one by one.
- **Alerts**: open alerts for the account.

Below the buttons, one card per asset:

- **Page**: the Facebook Page the account uses.
- **Ad Account**: links to the ad account, plus **Billing**, **Payment Settings**, **Audiences** and **Reporting**.
- **Pixels**: the client's pixel.
- **Catalog(s)**: the vehicle catalog, plus **Data Sources** and **Events**.
- **Google Links**: a shortcut to the client's Google Analytics.

Each asset card shows whether your user has permission and has a **BM Settings** button that opens the asset in Business Manager.

### Snapchat, TikTok and Pinterest Tabs

These tabs list the client's **Ad Account**, **Pixel** and **Catalog**. Click any of them to open it in that channel's business tools. **Still being set up** means the asset isn't connected yet.

### Google Tab

- **Google Analytics Tools**: click **Set up Google Analytics** to connect a Google Analytics property and run BuyerBridge's standard GA4 event setup, without the full Google Ads onboarding.
- **Google Vehicle Listings**: if the account still needs a linked Merchant Center feed and a Business Profile store code, click **Set up Vehicle Listings**. Once it's done, the card says **You are all set up on Google Vehicle Listings!** and **Manage Assets** lets you change them.

To see the listings, search for the dealership on Google and scroll to **Cars for sale** on its Business Profile. The card has a link that runs the search for you. Listings can take up to 72 hours to show.

### Channels the Client Doesn't Have Yet

When the client isn't on a channel, its tab says so and shows a card for that channel. Click **Setup** to start onboarding. When the button reads **Authenticate & Setup**, BuyerBridge asks you to connect your agency to the channel first.
