Conversion Tracking 360

Meta advertisers using the Conversions API (CAPI) face a technical problem called a deduplication bug. This issue started around March 16, 2025, and is causing key events like 𝗣𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲, 𝗔𝗱𝗱𝗧𝗼𝗖𝗮𝗿𝘁, and 𝗣𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗩𝗶𝗲𝘄 to be counted twice. 😂

Events are recorded once by the Meta Pixel (browser-side) and again by the server-side CAPI because of missing event_id values. These values are crucial for correctly matching browser and server events. 😂

𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘀 -

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴:

• Inflated metrics: Events are counted twice, making campaign data look incorrect.
• Attribution issues: Meta struggles to track where conversions come from.
• ROI analysis difficulties: Conversion tracking is unreliable.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗙𝗶𝘅 -

Advertisers can check if they are affected by opening Meta Events Manager and reviewing reports starting March 16. Meta suggests two temporary solutions.

1. Wait for a fix: Meta is working on solving the issue.
2. Disable server-side tracking: Use only browser-side tracking until the bug is fixed.

This issue is on Meta's side, and a resolution is expected soon.
