Get your Instagram ready for Social Relay

Instagram has no Connect button of its own — it comes with Facebook. You connect Facebook once, choose your Page, and the Instagram account attached to that Page is connected at the same moment.

For that to work, two things have to be true about your Instagram account:

• it is a professional account — Business or Creator;
• it is linked to your Facebook Page.

Both are free. Switching to professional keeps every post, photo and follower you already have, your account does not change its name or address, and you can switch back whenever you like.

Do this on a computer or a tablet if you can. Everything below is on instagram.com in a browser, and the phone app hides some of it.
