All integrations
Meta social commerce
Publish and synchronize store products across Facebook and Instagram Shops
Connect the ecommerce store to the correct Meta Business Portfolio, Facebook Page, Instagram sales channel and catalog. Product syncing supports one-time products and shared inventory; catalog ads remain a separate campaign decision inside Meta.
Quick answer
Create the Meta portfolio, Page, Shop and catalog, use the required Ecommerce Website Page category, enable the supported multiple-pages feature, authorize all catalog permissions, map each selected Page to its store and then enable product sync.

Reliability and security controls
- Use the least permissions required and keep tokens or keys inside the provider connection, never in page code.
- Match records with stable contact, order, product or matter IDs and make repeated delivery safe.
- Test success, update, duplicate, failure and reconnection paths before enabling production automation.
- Assign an owner for exceptions and review sync status, workflow history and business outcomes regularly.
Troubleshooting
The Shop Page is missing
Check the Ecommerce Website Page category, catalog connection, permissions and the multiple-pages feature.
Catalog management is disabled
Remove the old business integration if required, then reconnect and grant the catalog scope.
A product does not sync
Confirm it is assigned to the connected store and has a supported one-time payment option.

Frequently asked questions
Are recurring products supported?
The documented Meta marketplace sync supports one-time products, not recurring products.
Does product sync create ads?
No. It prepares the catalog; campaigns are configured separately in Meta.
What happens when inventory tracking is off?
The documented integration may send 999 because Meta requires inventory; use deliberate inventory settings.
