Automated Facebook/Meta Ads reports, delivered on schedule
Rahoto connects to Facebook/Meta Ads through Facebook sign-in and asks only for the read-only ads_read permission. For each ad account that sign-in can see, it offers five ready-made insights reports, from Campaign Performance to Audience Insights. By default they cover the last 30 days.
What Rahoto reads
Five ready-made reports
Each report is a fixed set of Facebook/Meta Ads fields, listed here exactly as Rahoto requests them.
| Report | What it covers | Fields |
|---|---|---|
| Campaign Performance | Overall campaign metrics |
|
| Ad Set Performance | Ad set level metrics |
|
| Ad Performance | Individual ad metrics |
|
| Conversions | Conversion tracking |
|
| Audience Insights | Audience demographics (requires breakdowns) |

How it refreshes
Refreshed on your schedule
Refresh mode: Snapshot.
- On each scheduled run Rahoto takes a fresh snapshot of the data and rebuilds the report from it.
- You can preview the data before you bind it to the page.
- Before an issue goes out, Rahoto checks the pages and notices when a source changed shape.
- Facebook/Meta Ads limits how fast its API can be read, and Rahoto paces its requests to stay within that limit.
