In the email you received from your partnering brand or agency, you'll likely see a Link Accounts button. Below we'll cover how you can successfully connect your Facebook Page to your Creator Dashboard so that brands and agencies can pull real-time metrics on posts and automatically collect Instagram Stories for your collaborative content. Since connecting your Social Accounts helps make your partnerships much more seamless, it can also improve the chances that you'll be tapped for additional future opportunities!
⚠️ Warning
Facebook Pages are not the same as Facebook Profiles. Profiles focus on personal information (e.g. interests, hometown, current city) while Pages connect businesses and creators to their fanbase. Note that you cannot connect a personal Facebook profile, so you must have a public-facing Facebook Page. Click here to learn more about the difference.
- Click on the Link Accounts button from your email invitation
- Under Required Accounts, click Authenticate Facebook Account.
- You'll see a pop-up window reminding you of the prerequisites for connecting your Facebook account, as well as a reminder that you'll always be in control and can unlink your Facebook account at any time. When you're ready, click Continue to Facebook.
- In the new window, input your Facebook login credentials and allow all requsted permissions.
📝 Note
You have the option to review the third-party permissions that you'll be providing to your partnering agency or brand. All the permissions must be enabled to successfully connect your account. The data that is collected will be read-only. Visit How do we protect your data privacy? for further information on our privacy practices.
- After logging in, you may be prompted to complete a Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) step as an extra security measure. Your 2FA credentials must be entered to be able to successfully connect.
After logging in and allowing the requested permissions, you should be returned to your Connect Accounts page, and should now see that your Facebook has been successfully authenticated.
