The Meta Consent API integration tells the Meta Pixel — used by Facebook and Instagram ads — whether the visitor has consented to advertising tracking. When the integration is enabled, CookieChimp calls fbq('consent', 'grant') or fbq('consent', 'revoke') automatically as the user’s preferences change.

​
Prerequisites

  • A Meta Pixel installed on your site.
  • A category or service in CookieChimp that represents Meta advertising consent (most accounts map this to the marketing category or a Facebook Pixel vendor).

​
How do I enable it?

1

Open the Integrations page

Go to Integrations in your CookieChimp dashboard and find the Meta Consent API card.
2

Toggle it on

CookieChimp will push consent state to the Meta Pixel on page load and whenever the visitor updates their choices.

​
How do I verify it’s working?

  1. Install Meta’s Pixel Helper browser extension.
  2. Open your site and decline marketing consent. Pixel Helper should show the pixel in a consent revoked state and no events should fire.
  3. Accept marketing consent and reload. The pixel should now report as active and events should fire normally.
  • Enable Debug mode from the CookieChimp dashboard and check the browser JS console for errors.
