Tagging products from your Instagram shop using Simplified's AI Social Media makes your content shoppable for followers.

Note: In order to tag product in Simplified, it is important to note a few key points. If you are located within the United States, you can upgrade your Shops by integrating checkout capabilities with Facebook or Instagram here. However, if your Shop on either Facebook or Instagram does not have checkout enabled, you may encounter an error when attempting to apply product tags. This issue arises from an alteration made to Meta's API on 2023.

Here's a step-by-step guide to help you:

1. Start by logging into your Simplified account.

2. Once logged in, navigate to your dashboard and click on Social Media.
