Ensure you’ve created a Business Manager account. You’ll need this to access Monetization Manager, which is the platform you’ll use to monetize with Audience Network.
When you create a Property, you can access it via the Business Settings in Business Manager, either under the People tab, or under the Data Sources.
If you’ve created a Property but it’s not visible in either Business Manager or Monetization Manager, please contact us.
Business Manager uses a 2-layer permission system that makes sure each person has the access they need. The first level is where you add people to your Business Manager. The second is task-based permissions, where you can grant them access to the Property.
Make sure you’ve given the correct access to the correct people in your business. See our guide for more information.

See our guide on the Facebook for Developers site on how to validate ad requests from Charles Proxy tool.
You can use this guide to help validate ad request or responses to and from Audience Network in cases such as:
When testing your implementation of Facebook Audience Network, you may experience one of several possible error codes when making a request. Check what they mean using our ad request error guide.
We only show Audience Network ads to people with Facebook profiles. If we’re frequently not bidding on your requests for this reason, it might be because people who are visiting your platform aren't logged into Facebook or don't have tracking enabled.
Check your code to make sure onLoggingImpression() is called after the ad is displayed.
The Ad Impression logged from notification numbers should never misalign from the Monetization Manager dashboard. However, because many ad servers and mediation platforms count impressions differently to Audience Network, the Monetization Manager dashboard may misalign with the mediation dashboard.
