Connect Instagram to Claude:
a plan from your own numbers

Switch your Instagram

Windsor pulls your numbers through Meta’s Instagram interface, and that interface only releases data for professional accounts. From a private profile you get nothing at all.

1. Open the Instagram app and go to Settings in your profile.
2. Switch to a professional account under Account.
3. Choose either Creator or Business, both work equally well.
4. Then check whether a Facebook page is linked to your account.

The switch costs nothing, and you can undo it again at any time.

Connect Windsor.ai

1. Sign up at onboard.windsor.ai.
2. Choose Instagram as your data source.
3. Click Connect and authorise Windsor inside your Instagram account.

Windsor is the line between Meta and Claude. It collects the data and hands it over, so you never have to export anything yourself.

Activate the connector in Claude

1. Open Claude and go to Connectors in the Settings.
2. Search for Windsor there and connect it.
3. Sign in with your Windsor account.
4. Then set the permission to Always allow.

The prompts

The four prompts below each work on their own. You do not have to run them in order.

Analyse my Instagram performance over the last 90 days.
Use the Windsor connector, connector "instagram".
Call get_fields first, only then get_data.

Find my 10 strongest posts by engagement rate and tell me what they have
in common: topic, format, caption length, time of day.

Build a 30-day plan from that, with concrete topics, formats and posting
times. Tie every recommendation to a real post.

If the data is thin, say so instead of guessing.

Use the Windsor connector, "instagram". get_fields first, then get_data.

Show me the days where I gained an unusual number of followers, and which
post came right before each one.

What do those posts have in common? I don't want general advice, I want
the pattern from my own numbers.

Turn it into a checklist I can run through before every post.

Use the Windsor connector, "instagram". get_fields first, then get_data.

Show me my ten weakest posts of the last 60 days by reach and saves.

What separates them from my strongest ones? Be specific and name the
places where I get in my own way.

At the end: three things I should drop from now on.

Use the Windsor connector, "instagram". get_fields first, then get_data.

From timestamp and week_day, work out which weekdays and times my posts
perform best. Use the median, not the average, so one outlier doesn't
skew it.

Build me a posting schedule for the next four weeks.

Important: this is a results-based reading, not a look at when my
followers are online. Tell me how solid the result is.

Four failures

• If Claude says it cannot see any data, your Instagram is either still private or the linked Facebook page is missing.
• If Claude asks for permission in every chat, the setting is not on Always allow yet.
• If the analysis feels arbitrary, you probably have too few posts. Below thirty posts there is no pattern to find, and for a usable plan you want at least two months of history.
• If the answer stays generic, your prompt did not say what should come out at the end. Add whether you want a calendar or a checklist.
