Connecting TikTok and Instagram accounts
How accounts link to devices, what "ready to post" means, and fixing connection issues.
Pamba publishes from physical phones, so posting requires your account to be signed in on a device. This is what makes posts look and behave like a human posted them.
Connecting
Go to Accounts and follow the connect flow for TikTok or Instagram. Depending on your plan, your account is signed in on a Pamba-managed device. Once linked, the account shows as ready and appears as a posting target when you schedule.
What "ready" means
Ready = the account is signed in on a device that's online and inside its posting capacity. If an account shows as not ready, posts scheduled to it will fail at their slot rather than silently skipping.
Instagram + Facebook
An Instagram account can share posts to a linked Facebook account (set up through Meta's Accounts Center). Once linked, "share to Facebook" becomes available on Instagram posts.
Troubleshooting
- •Account signed out on the device: reconnect from the Accounts page; then retry any failed posts.
- •Paused accounts: pausing an account cancels its pending posts and warming activity; resume it to schedule again.
- •Wrong account posting: each scheduled post names its target account explicitly; check the post's account on the Schedule page.
