Restricting Sked Social's Ad Account Access on Facebook

This guide shows you how to switch off access to your Facebook Ad Accounts if you don't want them to appear in Paid Social

When you connect your Facebook and Instagram accounts to Sked Social, you're logging in through Facebook/Meta Business Manager. While we need access to manage your posts, pages, and insights, you have the final say on what we can—and can't—see. 

Why you might need to do this

When you connect your accounts to Sked, that connection usually bundles in access to everything associated with your Business Manager, including Ad Accounts.

If your Facebook account grants access to more ad accounts than you want to share in Sked's Paid reporting section, you can easily restrict our access to the rest without losing any connection to your Pages and Insights.

How to restrict Ad Account permissions

You'll need to head to your Facebook Business Tools settings.

  1. Go to your Business Integrations settings:

  2. Find Sked Social:

    • Locate Sked Social in the list of your business integrations.

    • Click on "View and edit" (or just the app name) to see the full list of permissions we have.

  3. Find the Ad Account Toggles:

    • In the window that appears, scroll down to the permissions related to advertising and ad accounts.

    • You'll be looking for two toggles:

      • Manage ads for ad accounts that you have access to (This is the second toggle in the provided image).

      • Access your Facebook ads and related stats (This is the third toggle in the provided image).

  4. Turn them Off:

    • Switch off both of these toggles.

  5. Save your changes:

    • Click the Save button in the bottom right corner.

    • You might need to reconnect your Sked Insights or Facebook Pages in the Sked dashboard to ensure the updated permissions are applied correctly.

That's it! Sked Social will no longer have access to manage or view the statistics for the deselected Ad Accounts. You'll still be able to use all of our publishing and insights features for your Pages and Instagram accounts, and Paid Insights for accounts that have access.
