Scenario:
Someone comes to our website, and we have their user ID but we don't have any PII (email, name, address). We record events into Facebook Pixel during their session. The user subsequently performs an offline action, which we want to match using the Offline Conversions API. The primary reason is not for conversion attribution, but for building custom audiences based on the combined data set.
I want to...
- Send a User ID into the Facebook Pixel.
- Use this same ID to send an Offline Event Set.
- Create custom audiences, matching Pixel behaviour to offline conversion data.
Is it possible? I know I can send an extern_id in the offline event set, but it seems it only makes a match if I'm including PII on both sides.
Here is someone else with a similar question:

We launched the Facebook Platform in 2007 as a way of building a more personalized and connected online experience for people. Since that time, we’ve continued to evolve the platform to meet the needs and expectations of people, businesses, and developers, along with the demands of our core commitments to privacy and security. In 2014, we introduced extensive, granular controls that empowered people to decide for themselves what information they shared with their apps. Today, we're continuing that process by announcing a more robust app review process and more data protections for the people who use our products. Read on... http://bit.ly/2GxMQo1
Hi,
I have a question about the Audience Network reporting api - I noticed that it's possible to get a breakdown by Ad Placement ID, is it also possible to also get the name via the API?
(I attempted to query this ID via the graph API, but it returns an error that the app must be whitelisted)
... Thanks,
Itamar

I am trying to get below information
{
"id": "6003304635108",
"name": "Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center"
}...
Using graph api
curl -G \
-d 'type=adinterest' \
-d 'q=Cincinnati' \
-d 'access_token=EAACuKss3go0BAJH8FbJzbTZAevJ8OSuPifqpQcEy3GH2QP1FXZAjZCe9aZBjKZBvhCMofug1YloxygoLc8aeKZAGZCdKcM9DvWipftYpEzfzXaIPp5uM3x24rVHcPDyI8Rk0ugSRZA3RYMooGNyxK42N07gg8uXIyDRNoDj51U6MsrDKaa8l1Qo9K7doejmZBlpAZD' \
https://graph.facebook.com/v2.12/search
But it doesn't returns any value for 6003304635108.
Also I tried
curl -G \
-d 'q=Cincinnati' \
-d 'access_token=EAACuKss3go0BAJH8FbJzbTZAevJ8OSuPifqpQcEy3GH2QP1FXZAjZCe9aZBjKZBvhCMofug1YloxygoLc8aeKZAGZCdKcM9DvWipftYpEzfzXaIPp5uM3x24rVHcPDyI8Rk0ugSRZA3RYMooGNyxK42N07gg8uXIyDRNoDj51U6MsrDKaa8l1Qo9K7doejmZBlpAZD' \
https://graph.facebook.com/v2.12/act_XXXXX/targetingsearch
It returns
{"id":"82658279256","name":"Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center","type":"work_employers","path"
"Demographics","Work","Employers","Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center"],"audience_size":16850}]} Not the Interest type.
Any advice.
Is there a way to share a pixel (e.g. shared_agencies) that is owned by a personal ad account (i.e. not under a BM, the user doesn't have a BM)?
(To make things clearer, that means that the pixel has the field is_created_by_business=false.)
NOTE: When I try to use:
POST to {pixelId}/shared_agencies
I need to supply a business, but of course - the user has no BM, so there is nothing I can supply here. Empty string doesn't work, and the parameter is required.

Insights for deleted objects:
According to https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/insights… -> "Deleted Objects Insights" it's possible to retrieve the insights for deleted objects.
But it doesn't work for me in v2.12. ...
I can see the insights in the Ads Manager, but not via the API (ad-level).
When I apply the filtering parameter like this:
[{"field":"ad.effective_status","operator":"IN","value"
"DELETED"]}]
Then the result is empty.
It now appears that all audience analytics (audience insights, reach estimates, AND overlap information) for website custom audiences *without* advanced matching are no longer available. Can anyone else confirm this?
When this latest FB news hit I was very concerned that a knee-jerk reaction would cripple advertisers and marketing app developers. I'm very sensitive to the issues but curious what recourse legitimate users and developers will have in the short term.
