Connect Your Facebook and Instagram

dodd.ly

Last Update 3 days ago

You've created your Facebook Page, prepared your Instagram Business account, and signed up for dodd.ly.

Now it's time to bring them together!

By connecting your social accounts to dodd.ly, you'll be able to prepare and schedule posts for both without having to publish everything separately.

Let's get connected.

Step 1: Open Connections. Sign in to dodd.ly and open your workspace.

Find Connections.

This is where you manage the social accounts connected to your workspace.

We'll start with Facebook, then add Instagram.

Step 2: Connect your Facebook Page

  1. In Connections, choose to add a new connection.
  2. Select Facebook.
  3. Follow the instructions to sign in to Facebook, if requested.
  4. Facebook may ask you to review and approve permissions for dodd.ly.
  5. Select the Facebook Page you created earlier and complete the connection.

Important: Make sure you're connecting your Facebook Page, not just your personal profile.

Your personal Facebook account helps you manage the Page, but it's the Page that you'll be publishing to.

Once the connection is complete, check that your Page appears in Connections.


Step 3: Connect your Instagram account.

Now let's add your second social account.

  1. Return to Connections.
  2. Choose to add another connection.
  3. Select Instagram.
  4. Follow the sign-in and authorisation instructions.
  5. Select your Instagram Business account, if prompted, and complete the connection.

Depending on the connection process, Meta may ask you to confirm additional account permissions or the relationship between your Instagram account and Facebook Page.

If something needs attention, follow the instructions shown during connection.

Once completed, your Instagram account should appear alongside your Facebook Page.

Step 4: Check your connections.

Take a moment to confirm that both accounts are listed in Connections:


  • Your Facebook Page.
  • Your Instagram Business account.

Make sure both connections show as active or successfully connected.


If a connection wasn't completed, return to it and follow the instructions to try again.

What have you achieved?

You've brought two different social accounts into one workspace.

That means you can prepare content in dodd.ly, choose where you'd like it to appear, and schedule your posts without repeating the entire process on each social network.

And you can add more social accounts later.

What's next?

Everything is ready for your first Doddle!

In the next article, we'll open the Post Editor, prepare a simple message with an image, select Facebook and Instagram, and schedule your first publication.

We'll also show you where to find direct links to your posts once they've been published.
