What To Do If You Cannot Connect or Sociosight to Your Facebook Page and Instagam Business Media Social Profiles? #
It seems that you encountered this issue when trying to connect Sociosight with your Facebook or Instagram account. Kindly follow the steps below for the integration process. Kindly note that for connecting Sociosight with your Instagram account, Your Instagram account should be setting as a business account and has been connected to your Facebook Page.
Troubleshooting Error by Checking Your Page Role Access
First, check that your personal Facebook profile has the admin role for that Page. Or, if your Page is part of a Facebook Business Suite account, you’ll want to ensure that your permissions under that account are fully setup.
It’s also important to note that it is not possible to connect a Facebook Page if your profile is an admin through inheritance from a parent Page.
To find out, [1] visit your Facebook Page, example below:
Then, [2] please click the “Switch” Button to switch from your profile to page profile.
Next, [3] Click “Professional Dashboard”
Then, [4] Scroll to find and click “Page Access”. You will see [5] “Manage and View Access” section.
If you see yourself listed under a section labeled “Admin (inherited from parent Page)”, then unfortunately you will not be able to authorize the connection between the Facebook Page and Sociosight.
If you have the correct Page role and it’s still not listed, it means that Sociosight does not have the required permissions from Facebook.
To resolve this, please continue by reauthorizing the connection between Facebook and Sociosight and then try connecting your Page again. There are two options to do this.
Please try Option 1 below. If it does not work, please try Option 2.
Option 1 – Reauthorizing The Connection Between Facebook/IG Business and Socioisght.
[1] Go to “Connect Social Account” menu with the Sociosight App and click Click Connect/Re-connect Facebook Page Account button.
[2] Click “Edit Setting”.
[3] Make sure that the Facebok Page you want to connect with Sociosight App has been checked. And, click “Next”.
[4] You will see screen below. Make Sure that all toggle buttons set to “Yes”. Then Click “Done”.
[5] You will see screen below and click “Ok”.
[6] You will be redirected to Sociosight App to Pick Account to Bind.
Option 2 – Reauthorizing The Connection Between Facebook/IG Business and Socioisght.
[1] Open your Facebook Page Account under Your Personal Profile.
[2] Click on the small drop-down arrow at the top right of your screen, and then click “Settings & privacy > Settings”.
[3] From there, click Business Integrations on the left hand side. ⚠ Please note that these settings are found on your Facebook profile and not within the Facebook Page settings, so you must be using Facebook as your profile to access them.
[4] You should see Sociosight listed in the integrations area. Click Remove.
[5] A window will pop up asking if you want to remove Sociosight. Click Remove. Note: this will delete the Sociosight app within Facebook and Instagram associated to a Facebook page, not your Sociosight account.
[6] Head back over to Sociosight App and try your connection again. When you are connecting or refreshing your Facebook or Instagram channel, please be sure to accept all permissions and all Pages (even Pages not connected to Sociosight) during the authorization process. After reauthorizing Socisoight, please reconnect your account in Sociosight.
[7] You’ll notice an option to “Choose what you allow”. This option is required to be shown in this step due to Facebook’s guidelines, but modifying any of the permissions here will mean that we are not able to authenticate with Facebook and it will not be possible to connect your Instagram channel.
Note: Is the error persists, we suggest you schedule the product demo with us and we will help you go through each step.
