### Good to know

-   Personal accounts can't publish through the API. Switching to a free Business or Creator account takes a minute in the Instagram app.
-   Connect with Instagram or with Facebook. Location tags and DMs need the Facebook login.
-   The API can't edit a post after it is published.
