Remove profiles from Custom Audience in Facebook
You can use Synerise to manage your Custom Audience in Facebook and update it by adding or removing users based on all the data collected in Synerise, like customer activity and attributes. Removing profiles from audiences can be useful when we want to remove a club member when they unsubscribe, or we have an audience which abandoned shopping cart, and we want to remove from it customers who have made a purchase.
In this use case, you will use the native Facebook integration in the Automation module to remove users from Facebook Audience after they withheld newsletter consent.

scopevalue, selectads_management. - Have a Custom Audience in Facebook from which you would want to remove users, who withheld newsletter consent. Save the ID of the Custom Audience.
