Monthly Update - January 2023

🚨  Important

  • Updated Facebook (Meta) Reporting

    • Enhanced Lead Reporting
      We have added 2 metrics from Facebook into the "Total Leads" metrics in the BuyerBridge dashboard and Facebook Advertising reports, "Messenger Conversations" and "Call Confirmations." Click here to learn more.
    • Restored Facebook Website Attribution
      Facebook (Meta) has restored Website Attribution windows through their API. To align with this, we have re-instated 7d View, 28d View, and 28d Click back to the Facebook Website Attribution dropdown on the Facebook Advertising Report.

  • [Action Needed for Pinterest] Update Pinterest Connection User

As of 1/12/23, we have upgraded our BuyerBridge integration with Pinterest to ensure we are using their latest API. Organizations using BuyerBridge for Pinterest reporting and ads will need to reconnect their Pinterest Connection User.

Without the newly updated Pinterest Connection User and new API connection, BuyerBridge will be unable to display Pinterest metrics, and in the future, unable to deploy Pinterest Campaigns.

To re-authenticate your Pinterest Connection User:

    • Log into BuyerBridge and locate Organization > Settings: https://app.buyerbridge.io/organizations/settings 
    • From the Channels Connection section of the screen, scroll down and find the "Pinterest" channel row. If your Connection user was disconnected, you will see the "Re-Connect" button.
    • Click the "Re-Connect" button and follow the steps to re-authenticate your Pinterest Connection user.

🔧 Bug, Fixes, and Improvements

  • The Omni-Channel Advertising Stats located to the right of the funnel on the global dashboard will now display "Cost Per's" / "CP's" within its own row.
    • CPM = Cost Per 1,000 Impressions
    • CPC = Cost Per Clicks
    • CPL = Cost Per Lead
    • Note: This will update as you remove/add channel filters on the top of the graph
  • Lifetime budgets for Facebook are now able to be updated within our Campaign Management.
  • The Website Inventory report will now trim the URLs entered to remove the "https://www." and anything after the .com so the base URL will be able to go through the tool
  • We implemented changes to ensure that the correct account name is displayed within the TikTok ad previews from our Campaign Management tool. 
  • We are now updating the "Powered By" Icons used on the Dashboard to reflect the Agency name instead of having it default to "BuyerBridge."
  • Users will no longer be required to log into BuyerBridge to view Ad Preview links. 
  • Dropdown menu's and color selectors throughout the dashboard are now functioning properly. 
  • We have removed all instances of the "Account Settings" link for the client role, including on the channel dashboards, user drop-down, etc. 
  • Users can now successfully be re-directed to the Facebook Advertising page from the Offline Events area of BuyerBridge.
