Link Facebook Page Step 3 of 4
We'll need to link your Instagram account to a Facebook page. Instagram's parent company, Meta, requires this step in order to post to your Instagram profile. We won't make any posts or changes to your Facebook page unless you have purchased other Home ASAP services.
Make sure you have the correct Instagram account type before connecting. Always begin with Instagram first.
Instagram App Set your account type
Tap the small version of your profile picture to go to your Instagram profile. Depending on your phone, this usually appears on the top or bottom right.
A menu icon should appear in the top right corner. Tap to open the menu.
Tap "Settings".
Tap "Account".
Scroll to the bottom.
If you have the correct account type, it should read "Switch Account Type" in blue letters. This means you can skip ahead to adjust your Facebook settings.
If you see "Switch to Professional Account", tap the link and follow the onscreen instructions to convert your account.
If given the option, be sure to select a "Business" account (not a Creator account).
Facebook App Connect your Instagram account
Sign in to your Facebook account.
Tap the "Menu" icon.
Tap "Pages".
Select the Page you'd like to link to your Instagram account.
Go to your Page settings. On mobile, tap the gear icon at the top of the Page. On desktop, use the menu on the left side.
Tap "Instagram" from the options displayed.
Tap "Connect Account" and follow the onscreen prompts.
