Step 2 | How to Manage the Admin Settings for your Facebook Business Page

Do you have full control over the Facebook Business Page you're trying to connect on Facebook? If not, go ahead and follow these steps to make sure you do so you are eligible to auto-post on Planoly.

Don't have a Facebook Page? 

If you don’t have a Facebook Page yet, you’ll first need to create one. How to Create a Facebook Page

In order to successfully link your Instagram Business account to your Facebook Business Page, you must have Full Control of the Facebook Business Page. Also, a Facebook Business Page can only be linked to one Instagram Business Account. In this case, you can not have one Facebook Business Page linked to multiple Instagram Business Accounts. 

What if I don’t want to use Facebook?

You don’t need to use your Facebook Page, or promote it to your audience. Instagram just requires that your profile be connected to a Page in order to unlock certain features in their API. Don't miss out on these exciting functionalities - let's get connected!

Planoly Pro Tip: If you do not have Full Control, on the Facebook Business Page, ask the page owner to add you or change your role/access for you to auto-post and enable additional Planoly features! 

Facebook has 2 page experiences, New and Classic. Learn more about access in the new Pages experience.

Confirm You Have Full Control of the Facebook Page

  1. Log into your Facebook account on a computer web browser, switch into your Business page
  2. Click on your profile icon dropdown and choose Meta Business Suite
  3. In the bottom left corner, click on Settings
  4. On the left panel, under Accounts, click on Business Asset Groups 
  5. From this page, create Business Asset Group > name the group > Select page or Select All > next
