Yes, but you need to run the node separately for each Meta Ads account:Multi-Account Management:
  • Select different accounts in the Account field
  • Run the node once per account you want to audit
  • Combine results if you need a consolidated view
Business Manager Considerations:
  • Pixels can be shared across business accounts
  • owner_business_id shows which business owns each pixel
  • Same pixel ID may appear in multiple account lists
Best Practices:
  • Document which pixels belong to which businesses
  • Use consistent naming conventions across accounts
  • Regular audits to identify shared or duplicate pixels
  • Set up workflows for each major account or business unit
Pro tip: Create a master spreadsheet combining pixel data from all your accounts for easier management.
