Choosing which ad accounts to use

Pick which ad accounts feed this workspace, and see what happens next.

3 min read·Updated July 29, 2026

A single Facebook login often has access to several ad accounts, and you probably do not want all of them in every workspace. Right after you connect, AdLift opens the account picker so you can choose exactly which ones belong here.

Making your selection

Tick the ad accounts you want this workspace to use and save. Only the accounts you select will share their data and appear under Connected assets. You can change the selection whenever you like, so it is perfectly fine to start with one account and add more later.

What happens after you save

  • The accounts you picked start syncing their insights into AdLift.
  • AdLift looks at the Pages those accounts advertise and automatically starts tracking them as brands in Compass, so your own competitors show up without any extra setup.
  • Everything is scoped to this workspace. A different workspace can connect a completely different set of accounts.

Adding an account later

Open Connected assets in Settings and click Add account. The same picker opens, and you can tick anything you left out the first time around.
