Scheduling Instagram Stories/Reels

SocialBu can schedule not only posts but stories and reels as well. You can post images and videos in your stories.

To create your Instagram stories/reel, follow these simple steps.

1. Assuming you are logged in and have already connected your Instagram Business account, click on "+ NEW POST".

2. Select the Instagram account/s and attach the media file. You can add media files from your local device, or from Canva.

3. Once you upload it, then click on the "SHOW OPTIONS" dropdown and then select "Post as Story" option and schedule your story.

And to post reel, upload the video and check the "Post as Reel" option.

Note: Instagram recommends a 9:16 aspect ratio of the video to avoid cropping or blank spaces and Reels duration must be 3 seconds to 15 minutes.

For Bulk Import Instagram stories, you will just need to set the column name as "Post as story" and type "True"

P.S., Unlike many other scheduling tools, there is no manual action while publishing stories. Once, you will schedule the story, it will be automatically published at the appointed time.
