## Best Practices

- Opt into all current and future Pages/accounts where appropriate to avoid reconnecting when new assets are added.
- Use clear naming conventions for Pages and Instagram accounts so they’re easy to select and report on.
- Start narrow, then scale: test your workflows on one Page/account first, then expand once outputs match expectations.
- Be explicit in your prompts: define the goal growth vs. conversions vs. community , time window, and what “success” means e.g., saves, shares, comments .

## Troubleshooting & Common Issues

## FAQs

Why do I need to log into my personal Facebook account instead of my business account?

Facebook uses personal profiles to manage access, permissions, and Business Manager assets. Logging in this way allows you to authorise the correct Pages and Instagram accounts. Your AI Agents cannot see your personal Facebook feed.

Can I disable or remove the integration later?

Yes. You can disconnect the Meta integration at any time from your integration settings.

Can I connect multiple Instagram accounts at once?

Yes. During setup, you can opt into all current Instagram accounts and future ones , or select specific accounts to connect.
