# Reconnect Instagram Account

**Important:** To reconnect the account successfully, the reconnection must be performed by a user who has the Instagram account's access token.

## **Step 1: Identify Who Has the Access Token**

1.  Go to **Settings**.
2.  Navigate to **Social Media Channels**.
3.  Select the relevant **Instagram account/accounts**.
4.  Review the list of connected users.
5.  Users who have the required access token will have a **blue key icon** displayed next to their name.

Any user with a blue key icon can complete the reconnection process.

The user with the access token then needs to go to their **Personal Settings**.

1.  Click **Reconnect to Facebook**.
2.  Follow the Facebook authentication flow and approve the requested permissions.
3.  Once completed, the connection to the Instagram account will be refreshed automatically.

## **Step 3: Verify the Connection**

Once the reconnection is complete, the connection to the Instagram account/accounts will be refreshed automatically.

## **Troubleshooting (Liking Comments)**

If you see an error message when clicking "Like"

This usually means that the Instagram account has not yet been reconnected.

**Please ensure that:**

-   A user with a **blue key icon** has completed the reconnection.
-   The Facebook reconnection process was completed successfully in **Settings**
