      🙌  Enhancements

      • Troubleshooting Marketplace Issues For Agencies

        Since Facebook removed the ability to post listings to Marketplace via automation, there have been issues brought to our attention. We have documented common problems/questions being experienced and potential resolutions + answers. 

        Check out these articles if you are having issues with Marketplace or have questions:

      • UPDATE: Facebook Advertising Metrics

        We made slight changes to some of the metrics within the Facebook Advertising Report in order to accommodate the format of the MarketAnalyzer Tool.

        • Unique Clicks has been replaced with CLICKS 
        • Totals” will now be abbreviated. (Example: 175K, 20M, 2.25%.)
          • You can now click the number and it will copy the non-abbreviated number to your clipboard.

      🔧 Bug Fixes and Improvements

      • We made an update to our Marketplace Management Tool and removed an override in place: 
        • If a description is less than 100 characters, it will be included as part of your dealer-client’s Marketplace Tasks and will no longer use default messaging. 
        • If no description is present, your dealer-client’s listing will be sent without the description.
      • Improvements were made to our Chatbot, the chatbot will now work for:
        • ON FB AIA listings that include the VIN in the initial chatbot message
        • Marketplace listings that do not include a VIN in the initial chatbot message
      • We’ve updated EventFlow to track additional widgets.
      • We noticed there was an issue where Offline Events were being shown as processed within the Offline Event Uploader Tool. 
        • Events were still being processed on Facebook's side and reporting back Sales attribution but they were not being properly recorded in the BuyerBridge platform.
        • We are going to go through the previous uploads for October and attempt to correct as many as we can so the upload status will show as processed. 
          • 🚨 IMPORTANT: You may receive a duplicate email saying your events have been processed. Your CPS should not be affected or duplicated! This data is being recorded in our system only.
      • If you were having an issue exporting Facebook Advertising Reports, not anymore! We made changes to ensure that the Export button functions properly.
