# How to connect the social media channel to Vee platform?
## This guide walks you (and your team) through connecting Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn to Maggie so you can schedule posts, publish automatically, and view performance insights in one place.
#### Click to watch how easy it is to connect your social with Vee.
#### Before you begin (requirements) Ensure you are logged in to the accounts you plan to connect (Meta and LinkedIn) on the device you are on. You will need to be Admin of the page in order to connect it.
To unlock Maggie’s full capabilities, make sure the following are true:
- **Instagram**: an **Instagram Business Account** (not personal/creator).
- **Facebook**: a **Facebook Page** for your organization ( not a personal page)
- **Meta Business Manager**: both the Instagram Business Account and the Facebook Page are **added and linked** inside **Meta Business Manager**, and your user has **Admin** access.
> Tip: If your Instagram is personal, switch to **Business** in the Instagram app (Settings → Account → Switch to professional account → Business).
---
#### Step 1 — Set up Meta Business Manager (one-time)
1. Go to **business.facebook.com** and sign in.
2. Click **Create account**, name your business, and complete setup.
3. In **Business Settings**:
- Go to **Accounts → Pages → Add** → **Add a Page** (choose your existing business Page or create a new one).
- Go to **Accounts → Instagram accounts → Add** and log in to add your Instagram Business Account.
- Under **Users → People**, confirm your user has **Admin** access to the Page and Instagram account.
---
#### Step 2 — Connect Meta (Instagram & Facebook) to Maggie
1. In Maggie, open **Settings → Integrations**.
2. Click **Connect Meta** (or **Connect Instagram/Facebook**).
3. Sign in with your **Meta** credentials and approve the requested permissions.
4. Select the **Facebook Page** and **Instagram Business Account** you want Maggie to manage.
5. Finish and confirm. You’ll see the accounts listed as **Connected**.
---
#### Step 3 — Connect LinkedIn (optional, recommended)
1. In Maggie, go to **Settings → Integrations**.
2. Click **Connect LinkedIn**.
3. Sign in to LinkedIn and approve access.
4. Choose the **Company Page** (and/or personal profile, if applicable) to connect.
---
#### What you can do after connecting
- **Schedule & auto-publish** posts to Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
- **Centralize content** planning for multiple channels.
- **View performance**: reach, engagement, and post-level metrics (where supported).
- **Collaborate safely**: Maggie uses official APIs and your platform permissions.
---
#### Troubleshooting & common fixes
**I don’t see my Instagram or Facebook Page in Maggie**
- Ensure both assets are **added** in **Meta Business Manager** and **linked**.
- Confirm you’re an **Admin** for the Page and the Instagram account in Business Settings.
- If you recently changed roles, try disconnecting/reconnecting Meta in Maggie.
**Instagram says it isn’t a business account**
- In the Instagram app, switch to **Business** (not Creator), then re-add it in Meta Business Manager and reconnect.
**Connection fails or expires**
- Connections can expire when passwords change or permissions are updated. In Maggie, go to **Integrations** → **Reconnect** and complete the Meta or LinkedIn prompts again.
**Still stuck?**
Email **support@vee.com** or **maggie@vee.com**, or reach out to your Vee representative.
---
#### Best practices
- Keep **Admin** access only for people who truly need it; use Editor roles where possible.
- Turn on **two-factor authentication (2FA)** for Meta and LinkedIn admins.
- Reconnect services in Maggie after major permission changes in Meta or LinkedIn.
- Review connected accounts in Maggie **monthly** to ensure everything stays authorized.

#### FAQ
**Do I need both Instagram and Facebook connected?**
For Instagram Business accounts, Meta requires a linked Facebook Page. Connecting both ensures scheduling, publishing, and analytics work reliably.
**Can I connect multiple Pages/Profiles?**
Yes—repeat the connection steps in **Settings → Integrations** for each additional Page/profile you manage.
**Will Maggie post without my approval?**
Only posts you schedule or approve in Maggie are published. You remain in control.
