Facebook Ads Plugin connection

Hi everyone!

I’m trying out the Facebook Ads plugin and I’m struggling to add a connection through the Airflow UI. Does anyone know the correct format (Conn type, Extra, etc)? There are some example connection configurations in the https://www.astronomer.io/guides/connections/ but Facebook Ads is not mentioned.

Thanks!

Hi @Jype- welcome to the Astro community!

Excited that you’re digging into the FB Ads plugin. Have you read through this doc on how to manage connections in stock Airflow? There are a few ways you can go about doing it, but you may need to generate a connection URI for your FB Ads connection.

Thanks pete!
In the end I made it work by creating a connection with empty parameters except for “Extra”, where I included my access token in JSON (https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/).

Hope this helps others.
