How to Switch Your Connected Instagram Agent to Another One

August 25, 2025

At some point, you might need to switch the connected Instagram Agent you’re using—whether it’s for managing a different account, updating your setup, or starting fresh. Making the change ensures your agent stays aligned with your needs and keeps everything running smoothly.

Note

You’ll need a Professional Instagram account to use the Instagram Agent. Professional accounts can be set up as either Business or Creator.

To get started, disconnect your Instagram account from Instagram Agent. Here’s how:

  1. In Agent Builder, in the blue navigation bar at the top of the page, click on Publish.
  2. In the menu on the left, click on Instagram.
  3. Then, in the Connected Account section, click on the Three Dots icon next to the connected Instagram account.
  4. Next, click on Disconnect Account.

You can only link one Instagram account to one agent at a time. If you see an error saying your account is already connected, go to your Instagram settings and remove Jotform’s access before trying again.
