Getting Started

Copy a setup prompt with the install steps and the full markdown guide for this plugin.

        Set up this Capacitor plugin in the project.

Use the package manager already used by the project.
Install these package(s): `@capgo/capacitor-facebook-analytics`
Run the required Capacitor sync/update step after installation.
Read this markdown guide for the full setup steps: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cap-go/website/refs/heads/main/apps/docs/src/content/docs/docs/plugins/facebook-analytics/getting-started.mdx
Use that guide for platform-specific steps, native file edits, permissions, config changes, imports, and usage setup.
If that guide references other docs pages, read them too.

Install

bun add @capgo/capacitor-facebook-analytics
bunx cap sync

Import

import {
  FacebookAnalytics,
  FacebookEventName,
  FacebookEventParameterName,
} from '@capgo/capacitor-facebook-analytics';

Native Setup

Configure your Meta app id and client token in the native app. The plugin does not create these values for you.

iOS

Add your Meta values to Info.plist:

<key>FacebookAppID</key>
<string>YOUR_FACEBOOK_APP_ID</string>
<key>FacebookClientToken</key>
<string>YOUR_FACEBOOK_CLIENT_TOKEN</string>
<key>FacebookDisplayName</key>
<string>YOUR_APP_NAME</string>

Android

Add your Meta values to AndroidManifest.xml:

<meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId" android:value="@string/facebook_app_id" />
<meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ClientToken" android:value="@string/facebook_client_token" />

Add the string resources in android/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml:

<string name="facebook_app_id">YOUR_FACEBOOK_APP_ID</string>
<string name="facebook_client_token">YOUR_FACEBOOK_CLIENT_TOKEN</string>

Enable Advertiser Tracking

Call this after your consent flow allows tracking.

await FacebookAnalytics.enableAdvertiserTracking();

On iOS 17 and above, FBSDK v17+ reads App Tracking Transparency directly. Use your app’s ATT flow before logging tracking-dependent events.

Log A Standard Event

await FacebookAnalytics.logEvent({
  event: FacebookEventName.CompletedRegistration,
  params: {
    [FacebookEventParameterName.RegistrationMethod]: 'email',
  },
});

Log A Value Event With Currency

await FacebookAnalytics.logEvent({
  event: FacebookEventName.AddedToCart,
  valueToSum: 19.99,
  currency: 'USD',
  params: {
    [FacebookEventParameterName.ContentType]: 'product',
    [FacebookEventParameterName.ContentId]: 'sku-123',
  },
});

Log A Purchase

await FacebookAnalytics.logPurchase({
  amount: 9.99,
  currency: 'USD',
});

Read Tracking Status

const { status } = await FacebookAnalytics.getAdvertiserTrackingStatus();
console.log('Advertiser tracking enabled:', status);
