When scheduling posts for Instagram via Iconosquare, it's possible to tag another instagram user providing they have a public profile. To tag a user, click on the 🏷️  **Tag** icon, on the right hand side preview as shown below: ![](https://support.iconosquare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-19-2024-02-56-01-6596-PM.png?width=483&height=617&name=image-png-Nov-19-2024-02-56-01-6596-PM.png) The following window will then open - click anywhere on the media, and you can then type the username. (You don't need to include the @.) Make sure you **type the user's exact username** as we cannot provide a dropdown for this due to API limitations! ![](https://support.iconosquare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-19-2024-02-56-57-3277-PM.png?width=433&height=498&name=image-png-Nov-19-2024-02-56-57-3277-PM.png) If you type a handle name that does not exist, the post will fail to post. **Please also be sure to tag public accounts only** - if you tag a private account, this will also cause the post to fail. Once you've done this and pressed **OK** this user will appear as a clickable tag on your photo on Instagram. Finish by clicking on **Confirm**. - [Setting up your account](https://support.iconosquare.com/setting-up-your-account?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Adding social profiles](https://support.iconosquare.com/setting-up-your-account?hsLang=en#adding-social-profiles) -
