Via Zapier (Deprecated)

In the way back past, Instagram had to be integrated via Zapier. For completeness, we leave this tutorial here, but it is no longer necessary to do it this way.

You need first to allow Zapier to access your Instagram account. If you don't have a Zapier account yet, check out this tutorial and learn how to create it. This will take less than two minutes by following these steps:

Integrate accounts

1. On your Zapier homepage, click on your username on the top-right corner. Then, select “Connected Accounts” on the drop-down menu.
   
2. Look for Instagram under “Connected Accounts” or just write it down on the text field. As you click on Instagram icon, a new dialog box will be displayed on your screen. Hit “Authorize” so Zapier can reach your account data.
   
3. Your Instagram account will be listed on the Connected accounts page. To avoid confusion, we suggest you rename it in case you manage more Instagram accounts. Just click on the icon to the left of “Instagram Account 1#” and write a new name.
