This article describes how to connect your Instagram account with your Facebook account.

Requirements

  • You must have a professional account on Instagram. If you have a personal account, you'll be prompted to switch to a professional account during the linking process.

  • You must have Facebook access to a business page to manage linked accounts.

Additional Information

Both Facebook and Instagram provide information on their websites for linking accounts.


Steps

    • If the last Facebook page you accessed (before opening your main account or an associated profile) was the Facebook business page you are connecting, click the circle with arrows icon to switch back to that business page.

    • If you manage multiple Facebook profiles and pages on Facebook and the last profile or page you accessed (before opening the current profile or page) was a profile or page other than the business page you are connecting, click See all profiles to view the available profiles and pages.


      Select the correct page to link to the Instagram account. (You may also click See all Pages to view only the available pages.)

  7. Click Continue in the popup window.

     

  8. Select Log in as <user name>.

     

  9. Click Done in the popup window confirming the successful connection.
