How To Create Facebook App ID For Website

Last updated on August 27th, 2024

A Facebook App ID for website is a distinct identifier assigned to your application, which is essential when you are requesting advertisements from the Audience Network. Each application in the Audience Network must possess a unique Facebook App ID. If your app utilizes features like Facebook Login or Facebook Analytics, it’s possible that you may already have an App ID.

Step One: Visit The Facebook Developers Page

First, open your web browser and go to the Facebook Developers page. You will need to log in using your Facebook account credentials.

To start with new app, click on “Add a New App” link under the “My Apps” menu in the top right corner.

Step Two: Input Your New App’s Information

After clicking on the “Add a New App” link, a pop-up window will appear prompting you to provide the Display Name for your new App as well as a Contact E-Mail Address. Fill in the App’s Display Name and then click on the “Create App ID” button.

Step Three: Add Products In Your App

Next, you’ll need to incorporate the “Facebook Login” product into your application. To do this, simply click on the “Set Up” button associated with Facebook Login.

After pressing the “Set Up” button you will be redirected to the “Quickstart” page.

To get started, you have to select the platform. Now select “Web” platform for this app.

Step Four: Set Up Your Product

Upon clicking on the “Web” option, a new tab will open. Here, you should input your website’s URL and then click the “Save” button.

After saving, you can proceed to skip the remaining sections. Next, navigate to the “Settings” section in the left-hand menu.

In this area, enter your redirect URL (for instance, “https://your-domain/auth_oauth/signin” if you are using our website’s Ajax login/sign-up module). Once you have entered the redirect URL, click the “Save Changes” button to finalize the details.

Step Five: Make Your App Live

To make your app live, you’ll need to provide some additional information. Click on the “Basic” tab located under the “Settings” in the left sidebar. Once you’re in the “Basic” tab, enter your “App Domains” and “Privacy Policy URL.” Finally, activate your app by toggling the switch at the top of the page.

Once you complete this process, your app will be live, and you’ll be able to access your App ID as depicted in the accompanying image.

Conclusion:

Congratulations! You have successfully created your app and added the necessary products to make it functional. However, this is just the beginning of your journey towards creating a successful app. To fully utilize the potential of Facebook for your app, you can explore other features such as Facebook Analytics, Marketing API, and App Events. These tools can help you understand user behavior and optimize your app for better performance.
