# Connect Instagram

> Connect an Instagram Business or Creator account for daoco publishing workflows.

Instagram connections use the Instagram Business API. Personal Instagram Basic Display accounts are not supported.

## Connect Instagram

<Steps>
  <Step title="Check account type">
    Make sure the Instagram profile is a Business or Creator account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Connections">
    In daoco, open **Connections**, choose **Add Account**, and select **Instagram**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Approve Instagram access">
    Sign in with the Instagram or Meta account that controls the Business or Creator profile and approve the requested publishing permissions.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the profile">
    Return to daoco and confirm the Instagram username appears in the connected accounts list.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Troubleshoot

* If the wrong profile connects, disconnect it and reconnect with the Meta account that manages the correct Instagram profile.
* If the profile does not appear, confirm the Instagram account is attached to a Meta asset the signed-in user can manage.
