FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the Meta Business Portfolio ID and Business Manager ID.

What is the Meta Business Portfolio ID?

The Meta Business Portfolio ID (formerly called Business Manager ID) is a unique numeric identifier assigned to your Meta Business account. It represents the top-level business entity that contains your ad accounts, pages, pixels, and other assets. You need this ID when connecting third-party tools, setting up API integrations, granting partner access, or contacting Meta support about your account.

What is the difference between a Business Portfolio ID and an Ad Account ID?

The Business Portfolio ID identifies your overall Business Manager account — the top-level container for all your assets. The Ad Account ID (which starts with act_) identifies a specific ad account within that Business Manager. A single Business Manager can contain multiple ad accounts. When integrating with APIs or tools, you may need both IDs — the Business ID for account-level access and the Ad Account ID for campaign-level access.

Where else can I find my Business Manager ID?

Besides the Business Info page in Business Settings, your Business Manager ID also appears in the URL when you are logged into Business Manager — look for the numeric ID in the browser address bar (e.g. business.facebook.com/<your-business-id>/). It is also displayed when you hover over your Business Manager name in the account switcher at the top of the screen.

Why do I need my Business Portfolio ID?

Common use cases include: granting a partner agency access to your assets, setting up Meta API or Conversions API integrations that require your Business ID, connecting third-party tools such as CRMs or analytics platforms, and providing it to Meta support when raising a case. Some platforms (e.g. Shopify, WooCommerce) also ask for this ID during the Meta channel setup process.

Can I have more than one Business Manager (Business Portfolio)?

Yes. A single personal Facebook account can be associated with multiple Business Managers. However, Meta limits the number of Business Managers you can create (typically 2 per personal account). If you manage clients, best practice is to have one Business Manager per client or to use a single agency Business Manager and request access to client Business Managers rather than creating new ones. Each Business Manager has its own unique Portfolio ID.

What is the difference between Business Manager and Business Portfolio?

There is no functional difference — Business Portfolio is simply the new name Meta has given to what was previously called Business Manager. Meta renamed it to better reflect that it is a portfolio of business assets (ad accounts, pages, pixels, etc.) rather than just a management interface. The underlying ID and functionality remain the same; only the terminology has changed in Meta's interface and documentation.
