System Users to Generate Access tokens for Facebook Audience Integration

When using the Facebook Audience integration, an access token is required to complete the setup. This access token is obtained in most cases using a proper Facebook account. However, it is now also possible to use a Facebook System user.

A system user is just another way to access the Facebook Business Manager, without a user account.

Through the business setting the client can add a system user (admin or employee) and add assets (the app they created). System users are typically used by developers or businesses to automate certain processes.

A full explanation of how to use System users to generate the access tokens is provided in the online help.
