You wanted to add a new Instagram profile to Kontentino, you clicked on Add new profile, but no profile appeared in the list of profiles to connect? Here are 6 steps to fix this:
1. Check your role on the Facebook page
Ensure you have a sufficient role assigned to the page. To check this, switch to the business page → go to Settings → Page setup → Page access (make sure you're listed under People with Facebook access):
Alternatively, you can have a Full access role in the Meta Business Suite/Manager.
2. Make sure your Instagram account type is set to Business (not Personal or Creator)
Kontentino can only auto-publish to Instagram Business profiles. Personal and Creator accounts cannot auto-publish.
To check or switch:
Open your Instagram app.
Tap the three lines in the top right (Settings and activity).
Scroll to the For professionals section → Account type and tools.
If you see the option to Switch to professional account, your account is currently Personal. Tap it to switch to a Business account.
Tap Next, choose the category that best fits your profile, and finish the setup by selecting Switch to professional account.
✅ If, under For professionals, you see items like Insights, Ads payment, etc., then your profile is already set as a Business account
3. Check and fix the Facebook Page ↔ Instagram connection
Instagram Business accounts must be linked to a Facebook Page, or they will not appear in Kontentino.
For the New Pages Experience (most pages today):
Switch to the Page’s profile
Go to Settings & Privacy → Settings → Linked accounts → Instagram
If you see “Review Connection”
The Admin (creator of the Instagram account) must open Instagram on a mobile device to confirm:
Instagram app → Edit profile → Public business information → Page → Connect or Create → Connect a Facebook page
If the connection exists, but issues persist
Disconnect the Instagram account from the Page → reconnect it again. You might be asked to review the connection after that. (This often forces Meta to refresh internal permissions.)
Checking the Instagram connection in the Classic page:
If your Facebook page is still in the "Classic" mode, to check the Instagram connection, go to your Facebook page → Page settings → Instagram:
4. Remove the old Kontentino integration from Facebook
Switch to your personal Facebook profile (not the Page)
Open: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=business_tools
or
Profile picture → Settings & Privacy → Settings → Your activity and permissions → Business integrationsFind Kontentino
Click Remove
⚠️ Removing the integration does not delete scheduled or published posts. It only resets permissions so you can reconnect cleanly.
5. Reconnect Instagram & Facebook in Kontentino
After removing the Kontentino integration from Facebook, refresh your connection directly in Kontentino:
Go to Kontentino → My Profile → Authorization
Click Reconnect next to Instagram (/Facebook)
In the Kontentino is requiring access window, click Edit access, and make sure you have selected and granted all permissions to all listed profiles (both Facebook and Instagram)
Click Continue as [YourName]
Select the Instagram pages you’d like to manage in Kontentino
Click Add profile
⚠️ IMPORTANT: If you manage both Instagram and Facebook profiles in Kontentino, refresh both authorizations during this step.
6. Try connecting your Instagram profile again
Once all required conditions for connecting Instagram profiles to Kontentino are met (Steps 1, 2 and 3), and you reauthorized your Facebook connection (Steps 4 and 5), try connecting your Instagram profiles again in the calendar:
Open the Profile selector dropdown → click + Profile, or
The New button in the top right corner → Profile.
Then:
Hover over Instagram in the pop-up window and click Continue
You should now be logged into your personal Facebook account. Click Continue as [YourName]
Select the business pages you want to connect
Finish by clicking Add profile
This allows Kontentino to publish posts automatically on your behalf.
