📌 Important:
⚠️ The Instagram account must be a business or author's account - if it is personal, transfer it to a "Professional account" (in Instagram settings).
⚠️ One Instagram account can only be linked to one Facebook profile.
⚠️ For advertising, Instagram must be linked to a Business Manager (if you use Facebook Ads).
⚠️ If the Instagram account was previously registered in the Russian Federation, there may be difficulties when linking
⚠️ If the Instagram account was previously linked to a FB account that received restrictions or blocking, there may also be difficulties when linking Instagram to a new FB account.
