Connecting your Instagram profile to a Facebook Page is one of the requirements you need to meet before linking your Instagram account to IQ Hashtags.
We’ve made this step-by-step guide to make this process as easy as possible.
NOTE: All Instagram profiles analyzed in IQ Hashtags must be linked to a Facebook page you have access. It is only an Instagram API requirement used to enable IQ Hashtags to analyze data about your Instagram profile. Facebook pages do not have to show any activity or be regularly updated. Remember, one Instagram profile can only be linked to one Facebook page.
Before we begin, confirm that:
- Your Instagram account is switched to a business or a creator account – learn how to switch to a business/creator account.
- You have Facebook Access to the page with full or partial control. If your Instagram account is linked to your personal Facebook profile, you won’t be able to authorize your IQ Hashtags account – learn more about the page access.
