Why Connect Facebook Ads to Microsoft Excel?

Ditch the Ads Manager exports. Pull live Facebook Ads data into Excel and unleash pivot tables, Power Query, and desktop-grade analysis on your campaigns.

Desktop performance for heavy data

Excel Desktop handles massive datasets without flinching. Pull tens of thousands of Facebook Ads rows and slice them with pivot tables faster than any browser-based tool.

Learn more
Unlike cloud spreadsheets that choke on large datasets, Excel Desktop processes hundreds of thousands of cells locally on your machine. Multi-threaded calculation means your SUMIFS, XLOOKUP chains, and pivot table refreshes finish in seconds, not minutes. Build workbooks with months of daily campaign data and analyze them without hitting performance walls.

Pivot tables built for ad analysis

Drag campaign, ad set, and placement fields into a pivot table and instantly see spend, ROAS, and CPA breakdowns — no formulas needed.

Learn more
Excel pivot tables were made for this kind of analysis. Drop "Campaign name" into rows, "Placement" into columns, and "ROAS" into values — you have a placement comparison matrix in three clicks. Add slicers for date range and device type to create interactive dashboards that let stakeholders explore the data themselves. Calculated fields and grouping let you create custom aggregations without touching the raw data.

Advanced formulas and conditional formatting

Use XLOOKUP, SUMIFS, dynamic arrays, and conditional formatting to build self-updating reports that highlight what matters.

Learn more
Excel's formula engine is unmatched. Use XLOOKUP to pull reference data from budget sheets, SUMIFS to aggregate across campaigns, and UNIQUE/FILTER/SORT dynamic arrays to build live leaderboards. Layer on conditional formatting with icon sets and data bars so overspending campaigns and dropping ROAS jump off the screen. These formulas recalculate automatically when Supermetrics refreshes the underlying data.

Email reports as polished Excel files

Schedule automatic refreshes and email delivery through Supermetrics Hub. Stakeholders get a ready-to-open .xlsx in their inbox.

Learn more
Configure a refresh schedule in Supermetrics Hub — daily, weekly, or monthly. After each refresh, Hub emails the workbook to your distribution list as an Excel file or PDF. Recipients open a fully formatted report with charts, pivot tables, and conditional formatting intact. No logins, no dashboards, no "can you send me the numbers?" emails. The data arrives where people already work.

Cross-channel reporting in one workbook

Pull Facebook Ads alongside Google Ads, TikTok Ads, and LinkedIn Ads into separate worksheets. Blend them with XLOOKUP and pivot tables for a unified view.

Learn more
Supermetrics connects 170+ data sources to Excel. Build a workbook where each tab pulls from a different platform, then create a summary sheet that uses XLOOKUP or Power Query to join the data by campaign name or date. Build a single pivot table that compares spend, conversions, and ROAS across every paid channel — something no individual ad platform can do on its own.

Work in the tool you already know

No new dashboards to learn. Your Facebook Ads data shows up in the same Excel you have been using for years — complete with your shortcuts, templates, and muscle memory.

Learn more
Billions of people use Excel. Your team already knows how to build charts, write formulas, and format tables. Supermetrics just adds live marketing data to the mix. There is no learning curve, no new interface to master, and no migration to plan. Your existing workbook templates, VBA macros, and Power Query connections keep working — they just have better data feeding them now.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I connect Facebook Ads to Microsoft Excel?

Install the Supermetrics add-in from the Microsoft AppSource store, open it in Excel, select Facebook Ads as your data source, authorize your account, and click "Get data." Your data lands directly in your worksheet cells — no CSV downloads or copy-pasting required. The add-in works in both Excel Desktop (Windows) and Excel Online via Supermetrics Hub.

Is my Facebook Ads data secure in Excel?

Yes. Supermetrics uses OAuth authentication for Facebook Ads — your credentials are never stored in the workbook file. All data transfers are encrypted in transit, and Supermetrics is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant. Workbook-level security and SharePoint permissions give you full control over who can view the data.

Can I combine Facebook Ads data with other data sources in the same workbook?

Absolutely. Supermetrics connects 170+ data sources to Excel. Pull Facebook Ads data into one worksheet and Google Ads data into another, then use XLOOKUP, SUMIFS, pivot tables, or Power Query to blend and compare across sources — all inside the same workbook.

What Facebook Ads metrics can I pull into Excel?

You can access all standard Facebook Ads reporting metrics through Supermetrics, including Impressions, Clicks, Spend, ROAS, CPA, and more. Both metrics and dimensions are available, and the data drops into regular Excel cells so you can immediately use pivot tables, charts, and formulas on it.

Can I schedule automatic data refreshes for Facebook Ads in Excel?

Yes. Through Supermetrics Hub, you can schedule automatic refreshes — daily, weekly, or monthly — so your Facebook Ads data stays current without manual work. You can also set up automatic email delivery to send refreshed workbooks to stakeholders as Excel files or PDFs.

Does the Supermetrics Excel add-in work on Mac?

The Supermetrics desktop add-in is currently available for Excel on Windows. Mac users can access the same Facebook Ads data through Supermetrics Hub, which works with Excel Online in any browser. Hub delivers the same query builder, scheduling, and automatic refresh capabilities regardless of operating system.

Can I use Power Query with Facebook Ads data from Supermetrics?

Yes. Once Supermetrics pulls Facebook Ads data into your worksheet, Power Query can pick it up as a data source for further transformation. Use Power Query to clean, reshape, merge with other datasets, and load into your data model — all without modifying the original Supermetrics data pull.

Can I pull Facebook Ads data for multiple ad accounts into one Excel workbook?

Yes. Create separate Supermetrics queries for each account on different worksheets, or pull all accounts into a single query with the account name as a dimension. Then use a pivot table or SUMIFS to compare performance across accounts in one view.

Does the Facebook Ads connector include Instagram Ads data in Excel?

Yes. Facebook Ads and Instagram Ads are managed through the same Meta Ads platform. When you connect Facebook Ads in Supermetrics, Instagram Ads data is included automatically. Filter by placement dimension to separate Facebook and Instagram performance in your Excel reports.

Will my existing VBA macros still work with Supermetrics data?

Yes. Supermetrics writes data into standard Excel cells, so any VBA macros that reference those cells or ranges continue to work as expected. You can even trigger macros after a data refresh to automate post-processing steps like formatting, calculations, or exporting specific sheets.

What Excel file formats are supported?

Supermetrics works with .xlsx workbooks in Excel Desktop and Excel Online. When emailing reports through Supermetrics Hub, you can deliver the workbook as .xlsx or export specific sheets as PDF.
