Hi! Loving the idea of using scheduler! When I try to connect my business IG account it takes me to Facebook login. I don't have a FB account for this business. How do I connect my IG?

Thanks!

Correct answer Amitej S

I have a Facebook group page that I am admin of, and business profile Instagram account. I am unable to connect to Facebook- without a reason- just "connection failed" Any ideas? Thanks.

I hate that AE makes me connect my IG via Facebook. I am a content creator and I don't have facebook. This is a serious oversight.

    I did see those articles. So am I correct in understanding that without a Facebook account, I am unable to use scheduler with my IG business account?

    Thank you for your help

    Hi Emily,

    Yes, you're correct, Instragram Business profiles must be linked to a Facebook account in order to publish to them.
