# Optimize purchase conversions with CAPI for Facebook + Instagram

Previously, with the Event API, you could only fire a purchase event from Pancake POS to Ads Manager with a Facebook Page. However, with CAPI, you can apply it to Instagram as well.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you read the documentary and are still confused, what should you do to install CAPI? The answer is **To-do-Nothing.**

Pancake and Meta have AUTOMATICALLY moved all customers to CAPI, so unless there is a special purpose (setting up CAPI for IG, controlling data sets on Event Manager,...) you don't need to do anything else. 
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:**

* Each Facebook and IG page will only be able to connect to 1 dataset. This means you cannot connect 2 Facebook pages into 1 dataset. However, you can connect 01 Facebook page + 01 IG page into the same dataset.
* Each dataset can contain events of 01 Facebook + 01 IG, however for ease of statistics, you should create a separate dataset for each page.
* The connecting person must have ADMIN rights on that Business Manger, and have the right to manage the Facebook Pages and IGs that need to be connected.
* These Facebook and IG pages are located in a shop on Pancake POS.
* During the CAPI installation process, you need to choose the CORRECT FB and IG pages available in your shop.
* If your shop has many PAGES and IGs, during the installation process below, you can create a series of datasets.
* IG and linked Facebook Page need to be managed in 01 Business Manager. ([How to create a Business Manager](https://www.facebook.com/business/help/1710077379203657?id=180505742745347))

## Step 1: Access CAPI setting

2. Access Configuration > Shop information

* Select the Facebook Page you want to use CAPI.

{% hint style="info" %}
In this step, if the Shop is merging multiple pages, you can tick multiple pages to connect in bulk.
{% endhint %}

* Select the IG you want to use CAPI for.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you don't have an IG account, or don't want to create a dataset for IG, you can skip this step.
{% endhint %}

* Create or connect with available dataset

* Allow permisisons for Pancake to push event

After that, the setup steps have been completed. When you create an order for a customer on Pancake, by default, if the order changes to **Confirmed** status, the data will be transmitted through **CAPI** to the **Data File (Dataset)** and connected to **Ads Manager** for statistics and optimization advertisement.

## 3. Setup customize event (Optional)

By default, when you turn on "Notice of Facebook Events":

* If the order is in New status => POS will hear the Initiated Checkout event (\~Add to cart)
* If the order changes to the Confirmed state, or jumps from New to the following states Confirmed (for example, waiting for goods, waiting for delivery,...) => POS will fire the Purchase event.

Hope your sales will increase 3x after optimize CAPI!
