Meta (Facebook) Parameters

Default Parameters

DATA Reshape sends events to Meta via the Conversions API using the standard parameter schema. All supported parameters are sent in the most detailed format possible, including user data (hashed), event data, and product/content information.

For the full list of default parameters:

Custom Parameters

In addition to default parameters, DATA Reshape sends custom parameters in the custom_data object. These can be used for custom audiences, custom conversions, and reporting in Events Manager.

info

These parameters are sent by default for all clients. Depending on your business requirements, additional custom parameters can be configured for your specific implementation. Some parameters may be absent if the data source does not provide the underlying data.

Custom Properties

DATA Reshape forwards your free-form properties automatically into the custom_data object:

Reshape sourceMeta mapping
event.properties.<key>event_prop_<key>
products[*].properties.<key>aggregated across items into product_<key>

Keys are normalized to snake_case; multi-value arrays are joined with |.

Using Custom Parameters in Meta

Custom parameters appear in Events Manager → [your Pixel] → Test Events and can be used to:

  • Create Custom Audiences — segment users based on custom parameter values (e.g. content_brand = "Nike")
  • Create Custom Conversions — define conversions based on specific parameter combinations
  • Optimize Ad Delivery — use customer_lifetime_value for value-based lookalike audiences
