You should use this ad unit to drive people to your desktop or mobile app for the purpose of either install or engagement using photo, video, carousel, or Playable creatives⁠.

Conceptually this allows for the following ads:

	Photo	Video	Carousel	Playable
Mobile Install Ad	✓	✓	✓	✓
Mobile Engagement Ad	✓	✓	✓
Desktop Install Ad	✓	✓	✓
Desktop Engagement Ad	✓	✓	✓
Desktop App Ad for Virtual Goods	✓	✓	✓

Desktop app ads for virtual goods are a subset of desktop engagement, you can use virtual good offers to re-engage your players to come back into your app. For example, an app can offer a discount for an item or a set of their in-app currency in feed to re-engage past payers. See here for instructions on how to set up your app to accept payments.

For reference, this is what the mobile install image unit looks like:

This is what the desktop app ad for virtual goods with image looks like

Prerequisites

To create an app ad, the app developer must complete the steps in this tutorial.

The advertiser must have a Facebook Page with which to run these ads through.

Create

When creating the ad, note the following requirements:

Campaign objective must be APP_INSTALLS, LINK_CLICKS, or CONVERSIONS.

Ad set promoted object must be set

Targeting

For mobile app ads, we require the use of the mobile targeting spec user_os field. The placement should have a device_platforms field with value of [‘mobile’] and highly recommend the use of the spec’s other fields to target mobile devices on Facebook. Optionally, you can specify publisher_platforms if you only want certain platforms.

For canvas app ads, device_platforms must be desktop. Optionally, you can specify facebook_positions if you do not want both Facebook desktop Feed and Right-Hand-Side column.

When GET_OFFER is used for virtual goods, the price must be discounted. Please see virtual goods for more information.

App Ad call to actions:

The below additional Call to Actions are available for app ads within the call_to_action field of a post or the ad creative’s object_story_spec. You can also specify the mobile app’s deep link in the app_link field, or the desktop app’s virtual good object in the product_link field.

Key	Value	Required
type	Call to action types for mobile, regardless of install or engagement: `SHOP_NOW` `BOOK_TRAVEL` `LEARN_MORE` `SIGN_UP` `DOWNLOAD` `INSTALL_MOBILE_APP` `USE_MOBILE_APP` `WATCH_VIDEO` `WATCH_MORE` `OPEN_LINK` Call to action types for desktop install or engagement: `USE_APP` (desktop apps) `PLAY_GAME` (desktop game apps) Call to action types for desktop app ads for virtual goods: `BUY_NOW` `GET_OFFER`	yes
value	JSON dictionary of: `{"link": "<APP_STORE_LINK>","app_link": "<MOBILE_DEEP_LINK>","product_link": "<VIRTUAL_GOOD_DEEP_LINK>","link_title": "<NAME_FOR_LINK>"}`	yes Only certain values are required
value.link	refers to the App Store, Google Play Store, or Facebook Canvas App URL, e.g. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/facebook/id284882215	yes
value.app_link	To define the deep link destination only for mobile apps, e.g. `myapp://product/12345`. To specify a deep link for desktop apps you should specify it directly in the URL link field.	yes, only for mobile install or engagement ads
value.product_link	To define the URL that points to the product's Open Graph virtual good object. See here for setup details.	yes, only for desktop virtual goods
value.link_title	Allows you to customize the name for the link, which shows up below the ad's image	no

Field specification

Create with Photo

To create a desktop or mobile app ad with a photo, first create a link Page Post with a photo using the ad creative’s object_story_spec: {'link_data': ...} field.

Example:

curl -X POST \
  -F 'name="Sample Creative"' \
  -F 'object_story_spec={
       "page_id": "<PAGE_ID>",
       "link_data": {
         "call_to_action": {
           "type": "INSTALL_MOBILE_APP",
           "value": {
             "link": "<APP_STORE_URL>"
           }
         },
         "image_hash": "<IMAGE_HASH>",
         "link": "<APP_STORE_URL>",
         "message": "Try it out"
       }
     }' \
  -F 'access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN>' \
  https://graph.facebook.com/v25.0/act_<AD_ACCOUNT_ID>/adcreatives

Alternatively, you can create the Page Post through the Page’s feed endpoint and use the post ID in the creative. See the examples section below for more examples.

Create with Carousel

To create a mobile app install or engagement ad using the carousel ad format, follow the instructions in the carousel ads docs except in each child_attachments’ link field, specify an app store link.

Considerations

Currently carousel mobile app ads support only one app

Minimum number of 3 images (vs. 2 on non-app ad carousel ads)

Carousel mobile app ads must have a call to action defined

The end card (typically displaying the Page’s profile photo) will not be displayed for carousel mobile app ads.

Note that you should specify the same app store link in each child_attachment. You do not have to specify the link again in the call_to_action:{'value':{'link':... }}}

curl -X POST \
  -F 'name="Carousel app ad"' \
  -F 'object_story_spec={
       "page_id": "<PAGE_ID>",
       "link_data": {
         "message": "My message",
         "link": "http://www.example.com/appstoreurl",

             "image_hash": "<IMAGE_HASH>",
             "call_to_action": {
               "type": "USE_MOBILE_APP",
               "value": {
                 "app_link": "<DEEP_LINK>"
               }
             }
           },
           {
             "link": "http://www.example.com/appstoreurl",
             "image_hash": "<IMAGE_HASH>",
             "call_to_action": {

                 "app_link": "<DEEP_LINK>"
               }
             }
           },
           {

Example:

curl \
  -F 'name=Sample Creative' \
  -F 'object_story_spec={
    "page_id": "<PAGE_ID>",
    "video_data": {
      "call_to_action": {"type":"INSTALL_MOBILE_APP","value":{"link":"<APP_STORE_URL>"}},
      "image_url": "<THUMBNAIL_URL>",
      "video_id": "<VIDEO_ID>"
    }
  }' \
  -F 'access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN>' \
https://graph.facebook.com/v25.0/act_<AD_ACCOUNT_ID>/adcreatives

Alternatively, you can create the Page Post through the Page’s video endpoint and use the video ID in the creative. See the examples section below for more examples.

Read

To retrieve details about your Page Post, refer to the link Page Post docs or video Page Post docs.

You can list all Page Posts from the Page’s /promotable_posts edge.

curl https://graph.facebook.com/v25.0/<PAGE_ID>/promotable_posts

To retrieve details about your ad creative, refer to the ad creative documentation.

Mobile Measurement

Please refer to the main App Ads documentation.

Deep Links

Before You Start

Set up your app to support deep links

The pages_manage_ads permission

A Page access token requested by a person who can perform the ADVERTISE task on the Page

The app link, if your app supports app links

Sample Code

"call_to_action={
  'type':'LEARN_MORE',
  'value':{
    'link':'https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/facebook/id284882215',
    'app_link':'facebook://path/to/page'
  }
}"

Before specifying an app link, you should validate that it has been scraped by calling:

https://graph.facebook.com/v25.0/?type=og&scrape=true&id=<APP_LINK>

Mobile App Insights

Insights only apply for ads with a promoted object containing the app ID. To obtain an app ID, register the app on Facebook.

Meta will provide aggregated daily insights on the demographics of people who installed your app. To retrieve this, you should use an app access token and query

https://graph.facebook.com/v25.0/<APP_ID>/insights/application_mobile_app_installs?&access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN

You can also breakdown stats by specifying an additional URL param, breakdown, equal to one of the following values. You cannot currently combine breakdowns.

Name	Description
`gender_age`	Break down your statistics on audience’s age and gender
`country`	Break down your statistics on audience’s country
`locale`	Break down your statistics on audience’s locale

Examples:

https://graph.facebook.com/v25.0/<APP_ID>/insights/application_mobile_app_installs?breakdown=gender_age&access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN>
