To archive Instagram stories, your Instagram account must be currently linked to an existing Facebook business page, and both pages must be added to your MessageWatcher archiving services.

When creating a new story please post it to your Facebook business page. This will allow it to be archived with your Facebook posts. It will also preserve the story past the 24hr expiration and will provide an audit history for compliance purposes.

After adding a story to our Instagram account, you may select the option to “Share as Post…” as shown below when using the mobile app. When prompted please select the Facebook option as shown before using the “Share” button to save it to your Facebook business page. This will allow your story to be archived along with your other Facebook/Instagram content within MessageWatcher.
