Instagram

What you need

• A professional Instagram account (business or creator). Personal accounts can't publish from other apps.
• The account linked to a Facebook page.
• Admin access to that Facebook page.

Switch to a professional account

1. In the Instagram app, open your profile → Menu (☰) → Settings and privacy.
2. Choose Account type and tools → Switch to professional account.
3. Pick Business or Creator and a category.
4. Link the account to your Facebook page when asked (or later, in Edit profile → Page).

Connect

1. In My networks, choose Connect on Instagram.
2. Sign in with the Facebook account that manages the page.
3. When Facebook asks, check the page and the Instagram account you want to use. If you uncheck one, shub.social can't see it.
4. Accept the permissions. You'll return to My networks with the account connected.

What the composer checks

• Up to 2,200 characters.
• Always at least one photo or video.
• Carousels of up to 10 photos or videos.
• Videos are published as Reels.

Common errors

• “No Instagram accounts found”: the account is personal or not linked to the page. Follow the steps above and connect again.
• An account is missing: you didn't check it when connecting. In My networks, connect again and, when Facebook asks, edit the access to check it.
• The photo is rejected for its shape: Instagram accepts from 4:5 portrait to 1.91:1 landscape. The Library warns you when an image won't work.
• It suddenly stopped publishing: you changed your Facebook password or removed the permission. Reconnect in My networks.
