Meta Audience Drift Guard
Meta Audience Drift Guard ships as a ready-to-import n8n automation package: load the bundled workflow JSON, connect the credentials listed on this page, and activate it on self-hosted n8n or n8n Cloud.
Automatically detects when Meta ad delivery drifts outside your target audience and pauses drifting ad sets before budget is wasted — with Slack alerts and a full audit log.
- Monitors every active Meta ad set every 4 hours for audience delivery drift
- Compares actual age distribution against your configured target range and flags deviations above a configurable threshold
- Automatically pauses drifting ad sets via Meta API to stop wasted spend the moment drift is detected
- Sends instant Slack alerts with ad set name, campaign, drift percentage, and total impressions
- Logs every drift event to a Google Sheets audit trail for reconciliation and reporting
- Fully configurable thresholds, target age range, and date window — no code changes needed
Setup Service — optional live install and test. Choose your tier at checkout (not tied to this template's price).
Paste the license key from your receipt. It must match this template.
