  • Click on ‘Create’ to proceed.
  • You will see two main sections: Trigger and Action.
  • Select Instagram as your Trigger application.

Now, choose the event as ‘New Media Posted’ in your Instagram account. This step is crucial as it sets up the trigger that will initiate the automation whenever you post something new on Instagram.


3. Connecting Instagram and LinkedIn through Pabbly Connect

The next step involves connecting your Instagram account to Pabbly Connect. Click on ‘Connect’ and select the option to create a new connection. You will be prompted to log into your Instagram account if you haven’t already done so.

Once connected, you need to select the specific Instagram account you want to use. After selecting your account, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to confirm the connection. At this point, Pabbly Connect will fetch the latest post details from your Instagram account.


4. Adding Action Steps to Share on LinkedIn

Now it’s time to set up the action step to share the Instagram post on LinkedIn. In the Action section of Pabbly Connect, select LinkedIn as your action application. Choose the event as ‘Share Text with Image’ to ensure that the post is shared correctly.

  • Click on ‘Connect’ and create a new connection for LinkedIn.
  • Log in to your LinkedIn account when prompted.
  • Select the Author and the relevant group for sharing the post.

After establishing the connection, you will need to map the data fields from your Instagram post to LinkedIn. This includes the image URL and the caption from your Instagram post. By doing this, you ensure that the content shared on LinkedIn mirrors your Instagram post.
