 * Even though I am the administrator of the business manager for whom I am trying
   to configure this plugin, I receive an error message stating “Admin Permission
   Required.”.
 * Is there any solution for it waiting for your response.

 * Hi [@shazibfayyaz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shazibfayyaz/),
    Thank
   you for your message!
 * Can you share the exact steps you took to configure the plugin? In addition to
   that, could you please share a copy of your site’s System Status? You can find
   it via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”.
   Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response.
 * I would also like to see a screenshot illustrating the error.
 * Looking forward to hearing from you!

 * Steps to configure the plugin are as follows:
 * Installed the woocommerce plugin and clicked on the configure option available
   on the plugin.
    A new window pops on which a button appears “**Get Started**“.
   After Clicking on getting started I am redirected towards Facebook on which pop
   up shows 2 options: **(a) Edit Settings (b) Continue After clicking on either
   of these options I got this error “Admin Permission Required”
 * **Site System Status**:
 *     ```

 * Hi there!
 * Here’s a few steps you can take to fix this:
    - Ensure that you are both the admin and owner of the Facebook assets
    - Confirm you have 2FA enabled for the Facebook account you are using. If that
      did not help, continue with the next points.
    - Go to [https://<your-site>/wp-admin/options.php](https://<your-site>/wp-admin/options.php)
      and search for `wc_facebook_external_business_id`
    - Update field to include only supported characters and save (best practice:
      store-name-dfsdc3lck9k6q ← 13-digit random string
    - Go back to WooCommerce > Facebook and click “Get Started” again
 * Let us know how that goes!
