Connecting Instagram helps businesses automate customer communication and respond faster to common questions directly from Instagram.

This is especially useful for:

  • ecommerce stores

  • product inquiries

  • customer engagement

  • social commerce

  • support automation

Open the Instagram integration

To connect Instagram:

  1. Open your workspace

  2. Go to Settings

  3. Open Integrations

  4. Stay inside the Channels tab

  5. Find Instagram

  6. Click Connect

This starts the Instagram connection flow.

Sign in with Meta

After clicking Connect, Mando AI redirects you to Meta authentication.

Inside the Meta flow:

  1. Sign in to your Facebook account

  2. Select your Meta Business account

  3. Approve the requested permissions

  4. Continue the setup process

This allows Mando AI to connect with your Instagram Business account securely.

Complete the Instagram setup

Depending on your Meta configuration, you may need to:

  • select an Instagram Business account

  • connect a Facebook Page

  • approve permissions

  • confirm business settings

After setup is completed, you will return to Mando AI automatically.

Verify the connection

After connecting successfully:

  1. Return to Settings → Integrations

  2. Open the Channels tab

  3. Confirm that Instagram shows as connected

Your AI Agent can now start handling Instagram conversations.

Test your Instagram experience

Before going live:

  1. Send a test message to your Instagram account

  2. Review AI responses

  3. Verify response quality

  4. Test common customer questions

This helps ensure the AI behaves correctly before customers begin interacting with it.

Improve Instagram support quality

Instagram conversations are often:

  • shorter

  • faster

  • mobile-focused

For better results:

  • keep responses concise

  • maintain clear product information

  • update shipping and return policies regularly

  • test real customer questions frequently

Manage the integration later

After connecting Instagram, you can later:

  • reconnect the integration

  • improve AI behavior

  • update connected knowledge

  • test new workflows

Your AI Agent configuration and synced content continue working across connected channels automatically.

PRO TIP:
Instagram customers usually expect fast and simple replies. Shorter answers often create a better messaging experience on mobile devices.
