How to connect Instagram

Ready to connect Instagram?

Connect Instagram

1
Confirm your Instagram account is Business or Creator type
Instagram's Business Login API only works with Business and Creator accounts, not personal accounts. Convert in the Instagram app first if needed (Settings → Account → Switch to Professional Account). Personal accounts can't use this integration at all, that's a Meta restriction, not ours.
2
Click Connect Instagram and authorize the publish scope
Faceless requests two scopes: instagram_business_basic (read your account info) and instagram_business_content_publish (publish Reels). We don't request reach into your DMs, comments, or follower data.
```
GET https://api.instagram.com/oauth/authorize
  ?client_id=...
  &redirect_uri=https://faceless.so/api/oauth/callback/instagram
  &scope=instagram_business_basic,instagram_business_content_publish
  &response_type=code
```
3
Toggle Reels auto-publish on a project
In project settings, enable auto-publish to Instagram. Faceless renders the vertical 9:16 version (cropping correctly from any source aspect ratio), uploads to your Instagram, and publishes at the scheduled time.

What you can do with Instagram + Faceless

01
Daily Instagram Reels from cross-platform content
The render that goes to YouTube Shorts and TikTok also lands on Instagram Reels. Three platforms, one source of work.
02
Reels-first series for audience-building accounts
Some niches reach faster on Reels than on Shorts. Run an Instagram-primary schedule and let YouTube Shorts be the cross-post.

Verdict

Bottom line

The Instagram integration is the fastest way to automatically post videos on autopilot. Setup takes under five minutes. If you're already publishing videos manually, this is the highest-impact change you can make this week.
