I've build a custom data connector for Facebook Ads 

 

You can just copy the mez file from https://github.com/Hugoberry/FacebookAds/tree/master/build into your 

 [My Documents]\Microsoft Power BI Desktop\Custom Connectors directory

and enable custom connectors in Power BI.

 

The FacebookAds connector now supports two functions. The initial functionality FacebookAds.Campaigns() will return you the insights for your campaigns.

 

The Second function FacebookAds.API(uri,params) is more of a credentials wrapper for the enitre MarketingAPI. You can tailor your requests as you want with it.

Hi hugoberry,

 

I installed your connector and works like a charm. Just wanted to ask how can I sign out or change facebook user. I tried by clearing permissions but still remembers the first user I entered so there's no way to sign in with another user. https://www.screencast.com/t/vjk7d7FYb 

 

Is there any way to make a reset?

Thanks

Raul.
