Overview

Each Cost Line on the Social grid can be linked to one or more Meta campaigns, reducing the need to manually re-enter details across multiple platforms.

The linked Meta campaigns can be new campaigns or existing campaigns:

Linking a Cost Line to a Meta campaign creates a connection that allows delivery costs and metrics to flow from Meta to OneStrata, which can then be used for actualization.
