Lead Generation Audience
Last updated, July 2023

Lead Generation is a Custom Audience option that allows you to create an audience from users who engaged with your Lead Generation ads with an Instant Form. For example, you can retarget users who viewed your Instant Form without submitting it to improve campaign efficiency. To learn more about Lead Ads, refer to "What's the Lead Generation Objective".


A minimum audience size of 1,000 is required to target Custom Audiences in an ad group.


Specifically, a Lead Generation Audience refers to users who have engaged with your Instant Form by viewing or submitting the form. Below, you can find a complete list of events and their definitions that you can use to build a lead-generation audience.
