You can connect Scheduling to Facebook Business Manager to access all of Facebook’s offerings, or connect only to Instagram. We've merged the Acuity Scheduling Help Center with the Squarespace Help Center. This guide applies to both versions of Scheduling.

How Scheduling integrates with your business pageThe Facebook Business integration adds Scheduling to your business page in three ways:
Use Featured Services so clients can book through FacebookThe small scheduler on your profile page, called Featured Services, displays up to three of your appointment types. Clients can click those services to book, or click See All to go to your main scheduler. To change which appointment types are displayed in Featured Services:
Tip: Because Facebook caches information about your page, it's normal for changes to Featured Services to take about 24 hours to show up on Facebook. Facebook PixelYou can use Facebook Pixel to:
Note: Connecting Facebook Pixel to Scheduling doesn’t connect Pixel to any other parts of Squarespace, such as Commerce. To connect Pixel to other parts of Squarespace, visit Using Facebook Pixel with Squarespace. Events Scheduling sends to PixelScheduling sends these events to Pixel: Event Trigger PageView Visitor loads page or embedded scheduler InitiateCheckout Visitor reaches details form after selecting appointment type, date, time, etc. Schedule Visitor schedules an appointment. Purchase Visitor schedules an appointment or completes an order for a package, gift certificate, etc.
Scheduling data in PixelPixel tracks all activity on your embedded scheduler and standalone scheduling page. It doesn't track activity in the Scheduling panel, including when you book appointments there. If you connect the same Pixel instance to both Scheduling and a website:
Test the integrationTo confirm the integration is working, schedule an appointment through your scheduler. Don’t book the appointment directly through the Scheduling panel, because that won’t trigger the integration. Once you’ve booked the test appointment, go to your Facebook Events Manager to verify that you’ve received PageView, InitiateCheckout, Purchase, and Schedule events. It may take up to 15 minutes for these events to appear. If you see them, you’ve successfully set up the integration. Connect Scheduling to your Instagram page so people viewing your Instagram profile can instantly book with you. If you connect Scheduling to Instagram as part of your connection to the Facebook Business Manager integration, Instagram will add a Book button to your profile. If you don’t want to connect to Facebook Business Manager, you can add a Book button directly to your Instagram profile. To connect, you need the latest version of Instagram and an Instagram business profile. You also need to be the owner of your Scheduling account. To add the Book button, follow Instagram’s steps for adding a call-to-action button. When you’re prompted to choose an action button, pick Acuity Scheduling. You may be prompted to log in during this process. It's not possible to connect Scheduling to more than one Instagram account. If you’re unable to add a Book button manually and your Instagram Business Profile is connected to your Facebook Business Page, you may be able to approve the connection through your Facebook settings. Log into your Facebook Business Page or the Facebook App Store, go to Business Integrations, click or tap Acuity Scheduling, and choose Also connect my Instagram Business Profile. Note: If you encounter an authentication error when connecting Scheduling to Instagram, change your Squarespace login method from social login to email login. DisconnectTo remove the Scheduling Book button from your Instagram profile, follow Instagram’s steps for removing a call-to-action button. To disconnect entirely from Facebook, disable the Facebook Business Manager integration.
