Checking the connection via the Instagram app

  1. Open the Instagram app on your smartphone.

  2. Tap the “Edit Profile” or “Edit” button and look for the “Public Business Information” section.

  3. You will likely see an orange “Confirm” button there. This means that the connection between Facebook and Instagram is incorrect.

  4. Tap the “Confirm” button and follow the instructions to check and update the connection.

Once the connection is successfully verified, the orange button will disappear from this section.

As long as this notification from Facebook is present, the account, unfortunately, cannot be added to the service as your own, only as someone else’s. This is because the connection between the Facebook business page and Instagram is broken.

After successfully verifying the connection, follow the instructions to reconnect the account to the service.
