This guide will walk you through how to sync your Instagram to GRIN, specifically via the OAuth verification which is a required Facebook authentication. To connect via the OAuth connection, you will need an Instagram business or creator account that is linked to a Facebook business page. The OAuth verification is a requirement by Facebook that allows us to pull in your Instagram stories and their metrics. This does not give us access to your login or private information.
Note
When connecting your Instagram business account make sure to be logged out of your Facebook page on your device. Once prompted to log in via Facebook, make sure you log in to the Facebook page connected to the Instagram account you will be delivering your content to.

However, keep in mind that if you do not connect via the OAuth verification (Facebook) you will NOT be able to select the required story tasks, nor will you be able to submit a proposal.
