Before you can schedule posts, view analytics, or moderate comments, you need to connect your Instagram account. Instagrow uses the official Instagram Graph API — we never ask for your password.
⚠️ Requirement: Your Instagram account must be a Business or Creator account linked to a Facebook Page. Personal accounts are not supported by the Instagram API.
Sign up or log in to Instagrow
Go to instagrowapp.com/signup.html and create your account, or sign in if you already have one.
Go to the Connected Accounts tab
In your Instagrow dashboard, click Connected Accounts in the left sidebar (the person icon). This is where all your connected Instagram accounts are managed.
Click "Connect Instagram Account"
Click the blue Connect Instagram Account button. You will be redirected to Meta/Facebook's official login page.
Authorise Instagrow
Log in with your Facebook account and grant Instagrow the requested permissions. We request only the minimum permissions needed:
instagram_basic — view your profile and postsinstagram_content_publish — publish scheduled postsinstagram_manage_comments — read and manage commentsinstagram_manage_insights — access reach and engagement metricspages_read_engagement — read your linked Facebook PageSelect your Instagram Business account
After authorising, you will be prompted to select which Instagram account to connect. If you manage multiple accounts, you can add them all — each one creates a separate workspace.
You're connected!
You'll be returned to the Instagrow dashboard. Your account will appear in the Accounts tab and a first data sync will begin within a few seconds. Your analytics, posts, and comments will start appearing in their respective tabs.
💡 Tip: You can connect multiple Instagram accounts — great for agencies managing multiple clients. Each account gets its own isolated workspace and data.
