What happens when you click Connect Facebook & Instagram

  1. Rebbel redirects your browser to Facebook’s own OAuth consent dialog — you’re on facebook.com, not a Rebbel-controlled page.
  2. You choose which Facebook Page(s) to share access to, and grant the permissions Rebbel asks for — either option works, so pick whichever is easier: tick your specific business Page, or choose “all current and future Pages” and pick it from Rebbel’s own list on the next step.
  3. Facebook redirects you back to Rebbel, which reads only the Page(s) you approved.
  4. If your Page has a linked Instagram Business account, it connects automatically in the same step.

What permissions Rebbel asks for

Rebbel requests eleven Page and Instagram permissions — each one doing exactly one job, like reading your recent posts or publishing what you approve — plus a separate, optional request if you connect an ad account. See exactly what each permission does.

What Rebbel never gets from this

Your Facebook password — OAuth means Rebbel never sees or stores your login credentials, only a revocable access token scoped to the permissions above. You can disconnect at any time from Rebbel’s Connections page, or revoke access directly from your Facebook Business settings.

Connecting from Claude or another AI assistant?

Not seeing the newest Rebbel tools in your conversation? Claude (and other MCP clients) cache a connector’s tool list from when you first connected — a fresh conversation alone doesn’t refresh it. Disconnect and reconnect the Rebbel connector (or hit “refresh” in your assistant’s connector settings) to pick up new tools.
