Connect Instagram to Facebook to Unlock Auto-Posting, Analytics, and More
Connecting unlocks auto-posting, analytics, best time to post, and more. Here's how to set it up.
Before You Start
Auto-posting only works with an Instagram Business or Creator account, not a personal one. Not sure which type you have? See Instagram's guide: Set Up a Professional Instagram Account.
1. Link Instagram to Facebook
On mobile: Go to Profile > Edit Profile > Page, then tap Change or Create Page. Don't see a page listed? Tap Connect or create to set one up.
On web: Log into Facebook, click your profile picture (top right), tap your Page, go to Page > Settings & Privacy > Permissions > Linked Accounts > Instagram, then Connect Account.
Need a Facebook page first? Check out How to Create a Facebook Page.
2. Set Your Facebook Admin Access (desktop)
Log into Facebook on your computer and open Meta Business Suite. Create a Business Asset Group and give yourself full access, so you have the right permissions to manage the page. More on this in Facebook Page access and roles and switching into acting as your Page.
3. Turn On Planoly's Permissions (desktop,)
In Facebook's Business Integrations, confirm Planoly shows as Active and every toggle is switched on. Then head to Planoly's Social Sets Manager to finish linking your Instagram.
4. Still Stuck? Reset the Connection (desktop)
Remove Planoly from Facebook's Business Integrations, then reconnect it through Planoly, keeping all permission checkboxes checked. Heads up: you'll need to reschedule any posts that were queued before the reset.
