faceGetAdId: Get Facebook Ad Ids
In RonGuymon/ronsFunctions: Ron's favorite functions

This function is useful to get a brief overview of the ads.

This function requires that you set up an app on Facebook, and that you have access to the appropriate adAccount. Customers should give you access to your personal Facebook account. They can do it through business.facebook.com.

Once you get those three things, you can get the access token in the following way: fb_app <- oauth_app(appname = "facebook", key = appId, secret = appSecret) # Define the app creds <- oauth2.0_token(oauth_endpoints("facebook"), fb_app, scope = 'public_profile' , type = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', cache = T) accessToken <- creds$credentials Breakdowns: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/insights/parameters

Depends on tidyverse, lubridate, magrittr, httr, jsonlite.
