Conversion events allow you to track actions that occur in your Messenger bot, such as purchase or submit application events. By tracking these events, you can measure ad performance and build audiences for ad targeting. Conversion events allow you to analyze how users interact with your Messenger experience. This feature is only available for Messenger Channel. You would need to reconnect your Messenger channel if it was connected before 2022-08-25.
