FAQ

Meta insights questions

Why are some metrics missing?+

Instagram can take up to 48 hours to report new metrics, and some insights need a Business or Creator account or a minimum follower count. If Insights was declined at sign-in, remove Steer under Instagram’s apps and websites, then connect again and turn Insights on.

Does this include Facebook?+

Insights focus on Instagram. Facebook Pages are used to connect accounts and to publish creator ads, and ad performance covers both Facebook and Instagram placements.

Can I see insights for creators I work with?+

Yes. Once a creator connects Instagram in Steer, you see their verified audience and how their posts for your campaigns perform.
