What is required to start integrating Instagram with Nearby Now?

To start integrating Instagram with Nearby Now, ensure you have active accounts on both platforms and have access to Zapier. You'll need to authenticate both your Instagram and Nearby Now accounts in our system for the integration to work seamlessly.

How can I automate posting my Instagram photos to Nearby Now?

You can set up a trigger on new Instagram photos posted which then creates an action in Nearby Now, such as posting that photo as part of a check-in or updating a project gallery. This requires setting an appropriate Zap that connects the two platforms.

Can I filter which Instagram posts get shared with Nearby Now?

Yes, you can use filters or paths in your integration setup to specify conditions that must be met for your Instagram posts to be shared with Nearby Now. For instance, only sharing posts containing specific hashtags.

Is it possible to update my location status on Nearby Now when I post a story on Instagram?

Currently, stories are not directly supported as triggers for integrations. However, we recommend using photo or video posts as triggers if location updates are needed on Nearby Now when posting content similar to stories.

If any issues arise during the integration process, we suggest checking your authentication settings first. If the problem persists, consult our support documentation or reach out to our support team for assistance.

Can I automate creating reviews in Nearby Now from Instagram comments?

Integrating Instagram comments directly into reviews isn't supported mainly due to API restrictions. We focus primarily on facilitating content-based triggers like new posts rather than comments.

No coding skills are required! The integration setup utilizes a user-friendly interface that guides you through selecting triggers and actions without needing any programming knowledge.
