What is a Snapchat Pixel ID?

A Snapchat Pixel ID is a unique identifier assigned to your Snapchat Pixel when you create it in Snapchat Ads Manager. It is a 32-character UUID, for example 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000.
Its purpose is to:
  • Identify your pixel so Snapchat knows which ad account and campaigns the data belongs to
  • Track on-site actions such as page views, purchases, and sign-ups
  • Send event data to Snapchat Ads Manager for reporting, audience building, and optimization
  • Improve targeting and attribution by connecting user activity on your website with your Snapchat ads

Prerequisites

Before you start, you need:
  • Admin access to your Snapchat Ads account (Snapchat Ads Manager)
  • Permission to create or view pixels in your ad account
