Share media to Instagram with Instagram Publishing

Updated over 4 years ago

If you have an active Instagram account connected, you can post any approved photo from your content library to your Instagram feed in just a few clicks.

Content can be published right away or be scheduled for the future. Just follow these steps to share a photo on Instagram:

  1. Go into the "Approved Content" section of the content library.

  2. Click to View the image you'd like to post.

  3. Click on "Share to" and then select Instagram.

  4. Select your Instagram account and edit the caption as desired.

  5. Decide if you want to publish the photo now or schedule it for the future:

    • Click on the "Share now" button and the image will be published in the selected Instagram Account's feed immediately.

    • Click on the "Schedule" button and you'll see a calendar for you to select the desired date and time you wish the photo to be published on. Scheduled images can then be accessed and edited from the "Scheduled Content" within the Activate menu.

Keep in mind that:

  • Only approved photos can be published on your Instagram feed. Videos are not supported.

  • Only single media publishing is supported (bulk posting is not supported by Instagram API).

  • You can select any of your Instagram accounts available on the platform.

  • You can keep the original caption as it is (for collected user-generated content) or edit it.

  • You can post the same photo as many times as needed, to the same or to different Instagram feeds.

  • Published photos will show an Instagram icon on the Content Library to show that the content has been shared.
