What you need

You need a business or creator account linked to a Facebook Page and a connection key from Meta. Meta must approve your app for direct messaging.

Setup details

Connect a business or creator account linked to a Facebook Page, using a long-lived access token from Meta for Developers. Direct messaging needs advanced access, which Meta grants through app review.

Plexon encrypts saved passwords and connection keys on your computer.

When a task uses an online app, that app receives the request. Its results may also be sent to the AI service handling your chat. You can turn the connector on for one workspace and leave it off for another.

Once Instagram is on

A connected app is a source. These are the parts of Plexon that draw on it.

AI Chat & Modes
Turn one on with your own account and the assistant works inside that app.
Dynamic Workflows
An inbound message or a poll on a connected app starts a run.
A Tool step calls a connector directly, spending zero AI tokens.
Dashboards
A widget's data can come from a connector tool call, refreshed on a timer.
Action Record & Tool Rules
A call to a connected app is written down before it runs and again when it ends, with the app named on the row.
