My Instagram account does not connect - why?

In your Ägile Ässets account go to the settings area - you will find the settings access in the upper right corner of the entry page:


Settings Access

Three things need to be checked to make sure your Instagram account can be connected with Ägile Ässets or any other similiar tool:

1. Your Instagram account needs to be set on 'business' account, NOT 'creator'. || || Note that ONLY business accounts can be connected for autopublishing.
2. The Instagram account needs to be connected within the Meta Business Manager with a corresponding Facebook page.
3. Even if you do not use it, connect the Facebook pages first, then the Instagram accounts.

If you are not sure whether your Instagram account is already switched to 'Business', check out this article:

As the Instagram accounts are organized underneath the facebook pages, when you trigger the connect, it will open a Facebook connection window.

Make sure you are logged in into your respective Facebook account as well as the Instagram account you want to connect.

It will show you the settings to be activated for the relevant pages and Instagram accounts, then close again after you confirmed.

Once it is set up, it will look like this:
