Instagram is an indispensable tool for promoting your business on the Internet.
When planning to launch an advertising campaign on this site, you will need to connect the Facebook Ads account. It also allows you to post simultaneously on both social networks and use the statistics section to analyze progress indicators.
There are two types of accounts in Instagram - personal and business account. Among the profile settings there is an option that allows you to link Instagram to Facebook. Synchronizing profiles in these social networks makes it possible to create your own geotag, view detailed statistics, study the indicators of promoted posts and specify contact information.
In addition, publications posted on Instagram are duplicated on Facebook, and vice versa. The account owner can leave comments on Instagram through Facebook. Also, this function will be required for those users who want to promote a page on Instagram by creating ads in the Facebook advertising account. This will open up more opportunities for collecting analytics.
Only one Instagram page can be linked to Facebook Ads. If synchronization of the wrong profile is configured or it is blocked, then you will need to first unlink the previous account. After detaching the first page, it will be possible to integrate Facebook with the new Instagram profile.
If you want to set up account synchronization using a mobile device, then it is recommended to use the official Instagram application, as the synchronization process will be somewhat simpler. The following are step-by-step instructions demonstrating how this can be done using a mobile device or desktop version.
A business account is required to link Instagram to Facebook on desktop.
You can use an existing profile or create a new one.
The next steps are as follows:
Otherwise, you will need to enter your login and password to complete the synchronization.
If you need to use a mobile device to log into your account, you will first need to install the official application. After that, you need to enter the registration data that was indicated when creating your Facebook profile.
Next, you need to switch to Instagram to enable the account synchronization function. After launching the Instagram mobile application, you will need to go to the profile settings.
Here is the "Account" item that you need to open.
Next, look for the line "Publish to other applications". In the list of social networks available for linking that appears, select "Facebook".
If the authorization procedure was completed earlier, then it remains to confirm the action. Linking profiles will happen automatically.
If you cannot download the official Facebook app to your mobile device, a browser window will appear when you complete this step. In it you will need to specify a phone number and a password from your page. At the end, it remains to click on the blue “Login” button to synchronize the accounts.
The sequence of actions for linking from Facebook is as follows:
To complete synchronization, you must add a linked Instagram account. To do this, you need to switch to the main profile page in the official mobile application, then tap on the icon with three stripes located in the upper right corner. Then follow the same steps as when synchronizing via Instagram, adding Facebook to the list of linked accounts.
Connecting a business account will be required to create a geolocation and expand the capabilities of a personal profile. This is done as follows:
If not, then you will need to fill in the profile data and indicate the field of activity. If the linked page was blocked or it was necessary to change the profile, then there are ways to unlink the account. This procedure can be performed through Instagram and Facebook, respectively.
To do this, you need to go to the application and go to the account settings. Then visit the "Account" section, in which there is an item with related pages. In the window that appears, you will need to use the "Unlink" function.
Another way is to use your Facebook profile settings. It contains the item "Instagram". At the bottom of the page there is a function "Deactivate your Instagram account". By clicking on the "Disconnect" button, you can break the connection.
If there is a need to integrate not a personal profile, but a group, the page owner must do the following:
