The Conversions API Path

Browser pixels are increasingly blocked or limited, so platforms offer a server-to-server route. Meta's Conversions API (CAPI), and equivalents elsewhere, let your server or CRM send conversions directly to the platform.

Why and how

  • It is resilient to ad blockers and browser cookie limits.
  • It naturally fits offline and CRM events, which never touch a browser.
  • When paired with the browser pixel, both send a shared event_id so the platform deduplicates and counts one conversion.

Key takeaway

CAPI sends conversions server-side, ideal for offline and CRM events. Share an event_id with the pixel so the platform does not double-count.
