Tap the three lines to access the Menu where you'll find the Social Connections link
Tap Social Connections
Tap Add in the section for Business & Creator Accounts
Follow the prompt to connect your Facebook account to Roster
Select the Instagram account you'd like to connect with Roster.
Select which Facebook Page you'd like to connect with Roster.
Click "Next"
It is important that you keep all the recommended permissions selected so that Roster is able to automatically capture stories that you share for campaigns
Click Done, then "OK" and you will be redirected back to Roster, which will show the Facebook and Instagram accounts you connected to.
You're all done!! 🎉 Now when you create stories, reels, or posts for campaigns, as long as you follow the @mention and #hashtag requirements, your stories will be automatically captured in Roster. (NOTE: All socials can take up to 24 hours to be pulled into the Roster platform.)
