How to Integrate Instagram with Fetchply (Step-by-Step Guide)

Introduction

Shopify stores and e-commerce brands spend a lot of time and money to answering the same messages of the customer on Social media (like Instagram). Some brands hire a support team to answer the DM and others try to manage themselves but end up with late reply,missed messages or lost sales because the customer leaves.

Fetchply solves this issue by connecting an AI chatbot directly to your Instagram account. when you connected than AI reads all DM to answering the common questions automatically so your customers get a fast reply any time of day and you are not spending time to manually write or copy paste the same answers.

How to Connect Instagram, Step by Step

1. Start authorization

In your Fetchply dashboard, go to Integrations then select Instagram and click to Connect. You will be redirected to sign in with your Meta account and approve the requested permissions. This is the same login flow Meta uses for any business integration.

2. Confirm the professional account

After connecting, double-check your Instagram profile. Fetchply is connected to this account you want the AI chatbot for. This matters if you or your team manage multiple Instagram accounts.

3. Test interaction

  • After connecting the AI chatbot with Instagram, send a test DM to your own account to test whether the chatbot is working.
  • That's it your integration is complete.No need of code or developer for the integration.
