How can I remove Facebook Pixel from Facebook - 2019? - facebook

I have 3 facebook pixels on my facebook: one of them is on my personal account and the other 2 live on my business manager account. I have been trying so hard to remove 2 of these pixels since I use only one of them but in vain! I have searched all over google and nobody really addressed this issue, at least regarding the new facebook platform!
Any help would be appreciated!

After contacting facebook support, I learned that it is not possible to delete your pixel from your account! This is outrageous indeed and does not make any sense! You can remove them from your site and this would stop data tracking and everything, except for your facebook account would have multiple Pixels that would make it look unorganized...

There is no way to delete an existing pixel. However, you can go to "Business Settings" > "Data Sources" > "Pixels" and there remove the connected "Ad Account" this way the pixel won't show up in your list of pixels when creating ads or custom/lookalike audiences!
Additionally, don't forget to remove them from your website as well.

As Christian Rauchenwald said you have to delete the Ad Account connection of the "bad" Pixel here: https://business.facebook.com/settings/pixels/ (Connected Assets section)

There is no option to delete pixel from business manager. You can trash only ad account with pixel.
Step 1. Go to business manager
Step 2. Select Business Account
Step 3. go to data sources
Step 4. select pixel
there is no option to delete sorry for that!

Google Actions - how to add testers before final deployment

someone knows how to add testers to an action on google package?
So other users can test the implementation on their Google Home devices?
Thanks!
Today you must use the developer's account to test except for the case of account linking where testers can put their own credentials in for that specific step, and test any functionality that relies on that. I am told by the Actions on Google support team that providing a mechanism for testers (with different accounts than the developer) to access Actions/agents prior to deployment is the number 1 requested feature "by far" so hopefully we will see it down the road.
Yes. Make sure everything under "Directory information" is filled out. Then go to the "Release" tab under "Deploy", and click on Alpha (which allows a quicker deploy for up to 20 users without review). Click "Submit for Alpha", and ensure you meet the requirements to check the checkboxes there. After that, you can press "Manage alpha testers" under the Alpha pane, where you can generate a link or add email addresses.

Cannot load "My Selling Tools" in a sandbox environment

I've seen other postings where people can't load "My Selling Tools" and I happen to be in the same boat.
Support hasn't responded yet and I'm hoping to do a demo Monday of the Windows 8/Paypal API integration from http://paypal.github.io/Windows8SDK/ into WinRT apps - hence turning to may favorite net community, stack overflow :)
The link above gives a sandbox account to allow for third party access, so trying to add that account to allow the third party access but can't even bring up the selling tools to do so. I was able to bring up the selling tools from my main login, but not from within the sandbox login.
Once I login to the sandbox environment and try to access "My Selling Tools" it just hangs. The browser doesn't matter, same result across browsers. I get nothing returned but the wait image. Actually anything on the left hand side hangs not just the selling tools. I've tried more than ten times all throughout the day.
Of course, the hope here is that someone from the PayPal Technical team replies.
I can't wait another hour on hold, I just can't.
I was having the same issues getting into any option on the left in Paypals seller tools, but I stumbled onto the solution.
The links on the left are incorrect. They all begin with "www.beta-sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/..."
The issue is that "beta-" in the URL is invalid.
Using Chrome:
1) Right-click on the option on the left you want to get into
2) Click "Copy Link Address" in the pop-up menu
3) Paste it into the address bar
4) Remove "beta-" from the URL (see the "Profile / My Selling Tools" URL example below)
That's it.
INVALID:
https://www.beta-sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_profile-display-handler&tab_id=SELLER_PREFERENCES
CORRECT:
https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_profile-display-handler&tab_id=SELLER_PREFERENCES
Hope this helps.

I'll make sure this gets escalated. As a workaround, you can log in to your sandbox account and then paste this URL in your browser: https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/customerprofileweb?cmd=_profile-api-access. Could you also reference this post in your ticket if you have not done so yet?

Ads API: Implementing Partner Categories asks for account to be white listed. How to get white listed?

It seems that an account needs to be white listed somewhere to be able to use the new Partner Category feature. Anybody familiar with this? We tested with the account that is white listed for API access and get error back from Facebook with the message that the account is not white listed. Any idea?
you don't have to be whitelisted to use Partner Categories, you have asked this question some time ago but if you are still having the same issue please file a bug through http://developers.facebook.com/bugs and tag it as an ads-api issue.
The Partner Categories feature is currently only available to advertisers in the US - see https://www.facebook.com/help/353223368111533 for more information - this applies to the API also

Tracking the Reseller of the iPhone -App from inside the App

I have been stuck in a strange situation, according to my requirement, I need to track the resellers of my app, i.e. I will be publishing link of my app in the iTunes-Store on 3 or more different sites(The re seller's sites).
According to my promise which I made to these resellers, I will provide a share of my profit.
So here I have to track from which link did the user came to the APP-Store.
Any suggestions or solutions will be Thankful.
I think the only way to do it will be server-side. Links at your resellers should point to your server, where you log the source of link (resellers web page) and redirect request to AppStore. But you'll have no way of knowing, which of this requests ended up with a purchase.
The only way to do this for real is to get them to become iTunes affiliates and provide reports back to you. They should use the iTunes referral to make the sale (they will get a small cut from Apple) -- Apple will report that back to them, and then they can prove to you that they made a sale, and then you pay based on that.
Reserve the right to audit them -- meaning that they will have to show you the report directly from the iTunes affiliate site.
I assume that iTunes actually tells them what they sold, but you would need to check that.
Another idea (which may or may not make sense based on what your app does) is to make personalized versions of your app for each reseller. If there's some way to incorporate a very simple feature that is personalized (and makes sense), then you can upload the same app multiple times and assume all sales are coming from that reseller.
So, for example, if the app were an exercise tracker, and the resellers were gyms -- you could customize the app for each gym and add their schedule and contact info to it. Then, sell the app as an Excerise Tracker for XYZ Gym and let them promote it and get a cut of sales.

Can we move Google Analytics data to other account?

Started a webpage that now contains a lot of analytic data. Now that I have the client GA Tracking ID I would like to move the data I already have to that account.
Is this possible?
I get the Google Analytics API, I can always fetch all the data I want, but my problem is, upon I have the data how can I send / push this data to other account
in other words, How can I transfer data?
The domain is the same, only the account Id in use was a different one (my own, instead of the client's)
It is not possible:
You cannot currently transfer profiles or account data from one account to another account.
Google Analytics does not provide any flexibility with importing, exporting, or modifying any past data. Any data you have in one account cannot be moved to another.
With GA, the only way to get data in to an account is directly via __utm.gif requests, usually through their JavaScript snippet, but that doesn't allow for any way to import past data, since the date is fixed according to when the data is sent in.
Further, the Google Analytics API is read-only, and doesn't provide any way to import or move data.
(This answer is slightly less true for Universal Analytics
http://piwik.org/ is a good alternative, open source analytics system, not unlike Google Analytics, but without some of the constraints like this.
I think now it's possible to move data from one account to another.
Check out this article:
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6370521?hl=en
If you need to reorganize your properties in Analytics, you can move them (and their views) from one account to another.
Moving properties lets you keep your Analytics implementation current with your business. You might be reorganizing after a merger, after an internal restructuring, after hiring a new agency, or you might be developing a new Roll-Up strategy.
This was not possible in 2011 when the question was originally asked. Google added this capability to GA in 2016 (source). In addition to Google's documentation which engray provided, there are several blog posts which discuss how.
How to transfer a Google Analytics property from one Google Account to another
How to Move a Property to Another Account in Google Analytics
How to move a property:
Sign in to Google Analytics & navigate to Admin section.
In the ACCOUNT column choose the account that contains the property you want to move.
In the PROPERTY column, select the property you want to move.
Click Property Settings, then click Move property.
Select the destination account.
Choose your permissions settings.
Click Move.
Confirm data processing, then click Save.
Might be possible to do this as i was curious and found a few forum posts mentioning it:
Log into GA.
Goto the Account List.
Find your web property, you can't click the 'property' itself but a profile under it...
Then click on Admin on top-right side.
Go 'Up' a Level.
For example the breadcrumb says:
'Account list' › 'FOO (www.foo.com)' › 'FOO (www.foo.com) - (Default Profile)'
and now the breadcrumb should say when you click 2nd breadcrumb link:
'Account list' › 'FOO (www.foo.com)'
Now you have an option to add other users to this whole web property by going to the Users tab.
Add an Administrator user to this specific property. You can setup this user for them on gmail that they can change the password later after you set it up (or use their Google Account email they provide and maybe walk through with them to make sure they do it correctly).
Then login as that user, and delete the old user. Then that should 'transfer' to a new account.
What I do in this situation - export all data from Google account and import it into Tableau or QlickView. And use desktop analysis. In any case these data will be actual no more than 2 years.
