Problems with Instagram Business Integration with Make

:bullseye: What is your goal?

My goal is to connect an Instagram Business account to Make via Meta API so I can create webhooks and automate Instagram interactions (messages/events).
However, during the connection setup, the Instagram account does not link to or recognize the connected Facebook Page, so Make cannot complete the Instagram Business integration.

:thinking: What is the problem & what have you tried?

Problem:
I am unable to connect my Instagram Business account to Make because, during the Instagram integration setup (webhook/connection), the Instagram account does not link to or appear associated with the Facebook Page. As a result, Make cannot complete the Instagram Business integration.

What I have tried:

Confirmed the Instagram account is set as Business/Professional

Verified the Instagram account appears connected to the Facebook Page in Meta interfaces

Checked permissions and confirmed I have admin access to the Facebook Page

Attempted to reconnect the Instagram/Facebook connection multiple times in Make

Removed and recreated Meta connections in Make

Logged in using the correct Facebook account during authorization

Despite these steps, Make still does not recognize the Instagram–Facebook Page linkage.

:clipboard: Error messages or input/output bundles

There is no explicit error message, because the issue occurs before execution.

During the Instagram Business connection setup in Make, the Facebook Page does not appear or cannot be linked to the Instagram account, so the connection cannot be completed and no webhook or module can be executed.

Since the Instagram–Facebook Page linkage is not recognized, no input or output bundles are generated.
