The Instagram integration brings AI-powered automation to every corner of your Instagram presence. Exerta monitors comments on both your paid ads and organic posts, replies instantly in your brand’s voice, hides harmful or off-brand content, and answers DMs the moment they land. When a buyer signals interest in a public comment, Exerta can move that conversation into a private DM — handling the entire journey from first touch to conversion without you lifting a finger.

Integration details

What you can automate

  • Reply to Instagram comments on ads and organic posts in your brand’s voice
  • Answer Instagram DMs instantly, 24/7
  • Hide spam, scam links, and negative comments before they impact buyer confidence
  • Route interested commenters from public posts into private DM conversations
  • Deliver offers and promotions with tracked links directly in the thread

Requirements

Your Instagram account must be connected to a Facebook Page via Meta Business Manager. Personal Instagram accounts are not supported — only Instagram Business or Creator accounts linked to a Facebook Page can be connected.

How to connect

1

Open Channels in Exerta

In Exerta, go to Settings → Channels.
2

Add Instagram

Click Add Channel → Instagram.
3

Authorize via Meta Business Manager

A Meta Business Manager authorization pop-up appears. Log in with the account that manages your Instagram Business account and the Facebook Page it’s linked to.
4

Select your Instagram account

Choose the Instagram account you want to connect. You’ll see only accounts that are properly linked to a Facebook Page.
5

Grant permissions

Review and grant the requested permissions so Exerta can read comments, post replies, and manage DMs on your behalf.
6

Go live

Your Instagram account appears in the Channels list. Agents can be activated immediately across both ads and organic posts.
The comment-to-DM routing works especially well on Instagram — buyers often comment publicly then convert in DMs. Exerta handles the entire journey.
