## Short answer

**Can Meta Muse prepare Instagram captions through Tareno today?**

Not yet. Meta shows Muse users only connectors it has approved, and Tareno's connector is submitted and in review. This page describes the workflow planned for after approval, in which Muse pairs approved media with captions and saves drafts through Tareno, and nothing here can be used before Meta decides.

Instagram needs an image or a video on every post, which makes captions a matching job: the right words for this picture, in this brand's voice. A model that can see the campaign material and write in a described voice suits that job, and Muse is Meta's own assistant for such work. Whether you can use it with Tareno depends on a step outside Tareno's control. Meta reviews connectors before Muse users can add them, and Tareno's connector is submitted and in review. This page therefore says first that you cannot connect today, then describes the workflow Tareno is preparing, so that you can judge it and so that questions about Muse and Tareno have an honest answer. Every prompt below is marked as applying only after approval.

## Example: a small shop plans autumn campaign captions

Imagine a homeware shop with a folder of approved autumn photos in its Tareno media library. After Meta approves the connector and it is enabled in her account, the owner asks Muse to list the images in that folder with `list_media`, propose captions in the voice she describes and pair the three best images with captions. She reads each caption beside its image. Muse confirms the account with `list_accounts` and saves the approved pairs with `create_drafts`. She chooses days later in the Tareno dashboard. Until Meta approves the connector, none of this can be done through Muse.

## Step by step

1. **Wait for the connector.** Meta's documentation says approved connectors appear to users in Settings under Connectors. Tareno's is in review, so there is nothing to add today. The Muse overview carries the current status.
2. **Prepare approved media.** Upload the campaign images to the Tareno media library now. Instagram needs media on every post in Tareno's configuration, so each caption will need an image or video behind it.
3. **Describe the voice.** Write two or three sentences on the brand's voice, with words to use and avoid. After approval, Muse can use that description for every caption.
4. **Pair media and captions (after approval).** Muse lists the images with `list_media`, proposes a caption for each and shows them side by side. You read every caption next to its exact image before it is saved.
5. **Save the drafts (after approval).** Muse confirms the account with `list_accounts` and saves the approved pairs through `create_drafts`. Each draft returns an ID, and nothing is scheduled.
6. **Request times and approve (after approval).** Give days, times and an IANA time zone. `schedule_posts` creates pending actions that you approve in the Tareno dashboard. Meta also requires approval on every use of a Sensitive write tool.

## Prompts to copy

### Check the connection (after approval)

```text
Use Tareno to list my connected social accounts with platform and account name. Read only: do not create, schedule or publish anything. Tell me which Instagram account you would use for the autumn campaign, and say clearly if you cannot reach Tareno.
```

### Pair media and captions (after approval)

```text
Use Tareno to list the images in my media library folder [autumn-campaign]. Propose a caption of up to 2,200 characters for the three strongest images in this voice: [description]. Show each caption next to its file name and do not save anything yet.
```

### Check captions against images (after approval)

```text
For each caption, state what the image must show for the caption to be true, such as colours, products or settings. I will compare that list with the actual photos and tell you which captions to rewrite before you save anything.
```

### Save the drafts (after approval)

```text
Use Tareno to confirm my Instagram account [name] and save the three approved image and caption pairs as drafts. Return a table with draft ID, image file and caption, and request no time until I give you the days and the time zone.
```

### Request the slots (after approval)

```text
Take the drafts [draft IDs] and ask Tareno to schedule them for [Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at 18:00] in [Europe/Berlin]. Return the action IDs and remind me that each request still waits for my approval in the Tareno dashboard.
```

## Instagram in Tareno

- Tareno's configuration requires media on Instagram, so each caption in the plan needs an image or video from the library behind it.
- Captions can run to 2,200 characters in Tareno's configuration, which leaves space for context and a call to action in one post.
- Instagram's documentation says API publishing works for professional accounts, so the shop's account must be a professional account to appear for scheduling.
- Tareno's composer configuration lists up to 10 images per Instagram post, so a campaign set can use a carousel.

Official rules ([Meta: Instagram Platform, content publishing](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-platform/content-publishing), checked 2026-10-24):

- API publishing is limited to Instagram professional accounts. If the account is linked to a Page that requires Page Publishing Authorization, it cannot publish until that authorization is complete.
- A carousel can hold up to 20 images or videos, mixed. Tareno's own composer configuration lists up to 10 images per Instagram post.
- Alt text sent through the API applies to image posts only; reels and stories do not support it.

## Mistakes to avoid

- Planning around Muse before Meta approves the connector. Nothing here works until it does.
- Writing captions without looking at the image. The caption must be true of that exact photo.
- Using a personal Instagram account. Publishing through the API needs a professional account.
- Assuming Meta's approval replaces yours. Tareno's approval is a separate, additional check.

## What does not work

- Muse cannot connect to Tareno today, because Meta shows only approved connectors and Tareno's is still in review.
- It cannot post to an Instagram account that is not a professional account, because API publishing is limited to those.
- It cannot publish on its own, since a time request becomes a post only after you approve it in the Tareno dashboard.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I use Muse with Tareno now?

No. Meta's documentation describes a review before a connector reaches users, and Tareno's is submitted and in review. This page will say how to connect once Meta approves it, and until then no setup steps would work.

### Will Meta approve Tareno's connector?

That is Meta's decision, and this page does not predict it. Meta's documentation says meeting its guidelines does not guarantee approval and that approval covers only the tools reviewed. The overview will be updated when Meta decides.

### Why describe a workflow that is not available?

So that you can judge what to expect and plan the preparation, such as uploading approved media. The page says at the top that you cannot connect today and marks every prompt as applying only after approval.

### What can I prepare now?

Upload approved campaign images to the Tareno media library, write a short description of the brand voice and make sure the Instagram account is a professional account. These steps are useful whether you later use Muse or another assistant.

### How does Meta's approval relate to Tareno's?

They are separate. Meta says Sensitive write tools need approval on every use, and Tareno holds scheduling and publishing as pending actions that you approve in the dashboard. A post would pass both checks.

### Is there another way to use Tareno with Instagram?

Yes. You can connect Instagram directly in the Tareno dashboard and use other assistants that connect today, such as Manus, Grok Bot or Claude. Those routes do not depend on Meta approving the Muse connector.

## Tareno tools used

- `list_media`
- `list_accounts`
- `create_drafts`
- `schedule_posts`

Approval model: Tareno saves drafts directly. Scheduling, publishing, edits to scheduled posts and deletions become pending actions that a person approves in the Tareno dashboard; no agent can approve them.
