How to get Facebook Pixel ID ?

Firstly it is necessary to create some advertisement on facebook ads manager and open section called "pixels". Open there section named "conversion tracking pixel (old)". and press "create pixel" button (screenshot above). You will see the popup with "create pixel" menu where in dropdown "choose the type of action you want to measure" select "checkouts" - and hit "Create pixel" button submit pixel creation form (see screenshot).
