Connecting Social Media to Levitate
Connecting to Facebook
Navigate to the Settings > Personal Settings > Social Media section.
Please note that the user must be able to post to a business page. It is not possible to post to a personal page currently.
If the Facebook account has access to business pages AND has posting rights, the available business page will pop up after authenticating via Facebook:
Once a business page is connected, a confirmation pop up will display and the status will change:
Connecting to LinkedIn
Navigate to the Settings > Personal Settings > Social Media section.
Click the +Connect to LinkedIn under the LinkedIn logo
Enter your LinkedIn Credentials and click the blue SignIn button.
Select your LinkedIn Personal or Company page.
Click the blue Allow button.
You'll receive confirmation that LinkedIn and Levitate are successfully connected.
Connecting to Instagram
There are two requirements:
- Your Instagram account must be a Professional Page (See "Making your Instagram a Professional Page", below)
- Your Instagram account must be connected to your Facebook account. (See "Connecting Instagram and Facebook Accounts", below)
Since Instagram and Facebook are both Meta products, the Levitate and Instagram connection requires Facebook authentication. This means that your Instagram Account must be connected to your Facebook account.
We recommend using both Facebook and Instagram's web applications for this process.
Connecting to Instagram
Given that your Instagram Professional Page and Facebook Business Page are already connected:
Navigate to the Settings > Personal Settings > Social Media section.
Click the blue Login with Facebook button.
Select the checkbox beside your Instagram account and click the blue Next button. You will repeat this on the next screen.
Confirm the permissions are set to Yes and click the blue Done button.
You'll receive confirmation from both Facebook and Levitate that Instagram and Levitate are successfully connected.
Making your Instagram a Professional Page
Log in to instagram.com from a web browser and click the More button on the left-hand side of the screen.
Click Settings in the menu that appears above More.
Click the blue Switch to Professional Account link.
Add your Business Information in the next few prompts.
You will receive confirmation that your Business Account is Ready.
Connecting your Instagram and Facebook Accounts
Since Instagram and Facebook are both Meta products, the Levitate and Instagram connection requires Facebook authentication. This means that your Instagram Account must be connected to your Facebook account. As well, both accounts must be Business/Professional accounts.
From your Web Browser, go to business.facebook.com .
Click the All Tools button on the left-hand navigation bar.
Click Page Settings in the Manage section.
Click Linked Accounts.
Click the blue Connect button.
Click the blue Connect button again.
Enter your Instagram Login Information (email or username) and click the blue Log In button.
You'll receive confirmation that your accounts are connected.
