Hi @utpmiami - Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Square Seller Community👋
I went ahead and merged your post to an existing thread where other Square Sellers have discussed this as well. We merge duplicate conversations together to keep like comments in one place, and to make it easier for others to find the thread in the future.
I suggest starting out with these troubleshooting steps:
When you’ve synced Square Appointments with Meta for Business, you may receive an Admin Permission Required message. This error occurs when the admin of a Facebook Business page or Instagram Business profile requires admin access to the Facebook Business Manager account to make changes.
For a staff/team member trying to connect, they will need to enable the permissions set via Facebook Business Manager. To do so, go to Account & Settings > Manage subscriptions to Square services.
- For Add-on Businesses, access Facebook Support — this will provide an email and chat option.
- For Admin Permissions issue, select the Selecting and connecting assets topic.
To get admin access granted to add a Book Now Button, visit the Meta Business Help Center, particularly this help article: Add People to a Business Account and Add a Business Asset.
If this doesn't improve things, please reach out to Support directly by logging into your Square account and heading here for further assistance.
I hope this helps!

Mine just let me connect finally! Try it out!
I’ve always had square linked to my Instagram page. I noticed other day it wasn’t working / gone. So I deleted and went to put it back in again. The option for square is not available when I go to chose a booking system. Everything else is, Vagaro, booksy, Acuity etc. Has anyone else had this issue? I still see some pages with book available and it’s with square. So I’m confused as to what I’m doing wrong.

Hey @EtsyJen,
I moved your post to an existing thread where I answered/updated on this option not showing on Instagram.
Check out my Best Answer on the first page for more details.
Our engineering is hoping to have it rolled out within the next few weeks.

I used to have the book button on my instagram, somehow it disappeared and when I can't find it on my (add button settings) it would usually read, Appointments by square.
so when I try to relink square with ig, in my appointments settings of square,
it says "instagram coming soon" I thought it was already something that was implemented.
any clues as to why?
thanks!

It is not working yet right? I though I was doing something wrong, that may be the only answer why this is not working, in the add action button it doesn't show the Appointments by Square, it show a lot of other companies but not yours :(:(

Hey @sobetan,
You're correct that it isn't available yet.
I'll be sure to update the thread once engineering tells us it's available again.
Thanks for hanging in there.

The BOOK button was enabled on my Instagram for a while now. All of a sudden it stopped working. So I took it of and then tired to re link the app and "square" is not an option anymore. I tried googling what was up with this and can not find any info. Also tried messaging square and no answer back. This is very frustrating as I have gotten a lot of my clients to book their haircut appointments this way. All of a sudden I looking in appointments dashboard, went to online booking then booking sites and Instagram book button just says "coming soon" please advise what is going on so I know. No emails or info was shared with me.

Good day. I have Instagram Business account and I added Book now button. It's visible and working from my page only! No other accounts can see it.
What can be a problem?

I am having issues locating the “Appointments by Square" button in Instagram.
I have a business profile and my Square Appointments online booking site is turned on.
Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/bio.skin.aesthetics/
To receive bookings through Instagram:
- Go to your business profile on Instagram and tap Edit Profile.
- Click Business Information, then Contact Options.
- Tap the Add an action button and select “Appointments by Square.”
- Add your Square Appointments online booking site URL.
