Connect Instagram to Facebook Page
How to connect or disconnect your professional Instagram account and a Facebook Page for use with Sociro.
Why is this needed?
Sociro uses Meta's official APIs to schedule and publish Instagram content. Meta requires your Instagram professional account to be connected to a Facebook Page before any third-party app can access it. This is a Meta requirement, not a Sociro limitation.
Before You Begin
- A professional Instagram account (Business or Creator). Learn how to switch →
- Full control of a Facebook Page (admin access).
- Both your Instagram account and Facebook Page in the same Business Portfolio.
Note: If you have a personal account, you'll be prompted to switch to a professional account during the linking process. Instagram accounts can only be in one business portfolio at a time.
