Having Issues Accessing Facebook Ad Library API - Permission Error

I’m encountering persistent permission errors while trying to access the Facebook Ad Library through the Graph API. Despite creating multiple developer applications on META, I haven’t been able to locate the specific permissions required for API access.

The documentation doesn’t clearly specify which permissions are needed. Has anyone successfully integrated with the Ad Library API? If so, could you share:

  1. Which specific permissions are required?
  2. Where to enable these permissions in the META developer console?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, as I’ve hit a roadblock with the continuous ‘no permission’ errors."

Here is the workflow

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:

  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

Hi @HenkieT_Amg

According to the Facebook API documentation I would start with checking for these permissions:

  • ads_read
  • ads_management

You will need to add these permissions in your App settings in your Meta Development account.
