Connect Instagram to cmo.so

Instagram only lets apps post to professional accounts (Business or Creator) linked to a Facebook Page, so you connect through Facebook sign-in.

Before connecting, switch to a professional account in the Instagram app under Settings → Account type and tools, then link it on Facebook under your Page → Settings → Linked accounts. When Facebook asks during sign-in, tick the Instagram account. If the app can't find an account, it opens Link your Instagram with those steps and a Try again button. If you have several, choose one under Which Instagram account?.

Yes. Add up to five photos and Maggie writes posts around them, or turns them into a carousel.

Your own photos suit products, your team or your premises. Maggie still writes the caption, up to 2,200 characters and usually about 400, with 3 to 5 hashtags. A carousel can hold up to 10 pictures in one post. Instagram won't take a post without a picture, so when you don't add one, Maggie makes it in your look in 4:5. Open Upcoming to see how the next tiles will sit on your grid before you approve.

Posted shows a How it's doing card for each post: views, reach, saves, shares, likes and comments, refreshed every 15 minutes.

Use it to see which posts your followers save and share, then tell Maggie what worked. If carousels get more saves than single pictures, for example, ask for more of them. Maggie remembers what you change and turn down for each channel, so the drafts move closer to what you want.

Instagram doesn't let apps delete or republish posts; do that in the Instagram app.

So check each post before it goes out. Upcoming shows your grid with the next tiles, and if a picture isn't right, Change it gives you another for free. If you need to remove a post once it's live, open it in the Instagram app and delete it there.

Maggie writes from your brand profile and the voice she learns from you: the words you use, how formal you are and what you never say. Tell her a rule once, such as no emojis, and Maggie Memory keeps it for this channel.

Every post can be changed before it goes out with Ask Maggie to change it, and you can retrain the voice from posts you like.

Maggie does, in your picture look: up to three styles and five text styles you choose under Your picture look, with a title and line on each picture. You can ask for a set of 4 or change a picture for free.

Prefer your own photos? Add up to five and Maggie writes posts around them. A picture that might show something invented is held for your OK even when posts go out on their own.

Each channel has posting times. One post goes out at each time on each channel: your own posts first, then your campaigns'. Change the days and times in the Instagram settings, or pause just this channel.

If a time passes while posting is paused, that slot is skipped rather than doubled up later, so your audience never gets a burst of posts at once.

Yes, and that's how it starts. New posts wait in the app (Posts → Ready for articles, Social → Review for social posts) until you approve them. You can edit any post, ask Maggie to change it in your own words, or delete it.

When you trust the results, switch the channel to go out on its own; the content guard keeps checking each post first and holds anything it isn't sure about. You can switch back, or pause, at any time.

The free plan and verified websites without a plan can use two social channels; paid plans more. Each channel has its own posting times and its own queue, so one never crowds out another.

One idea can become a post for every channel you pick, each written in that channel's style, with one AI generation per channel.

Platforms sign apps out from time to time. When that happens, the Social tab shows a Reconnect button and a note explaining what happened, and the Instagram account sheet shows when the platform will next ask you to sign in.

Posts waiting to go out stay in the queue until you reconnect. From the account sheet you can also change the page, profile or channel, or disconnect for good.

When it's on, the content guard reads each post before it goes out and checks it against your industry's rules (financial, medical, insurance, legal or education) and any rule you write yourself, such as never naming a competitor.

A post that may break a rule is held, as a draft on your website or in Review for social, with the reason and a suggested rewrite, even if posts normally go out on their own. You can see what it held and why in Publishing settings.

Your brand profile and the first drafts are ready within minutes of entering your website, and the first posts can go out the same day once you approve them.

Search traffic builds over weeks to months as Google and AI assistants find and trust your pages; social reach grows with regular posting. Connect Search Console to see which posts bring clicks, and Maggie uses it to choose what to improve.
