# Add a person’s Instagram, LinkedIn and other accounts to a contact

> In SkedX CRM, open an enquiry and choose the Contacts tab. Under each person’s name and details is one line of social account icons, and a + button. Press + to add an account: paste the profile link (SkedX picks the network from it) or type a handle and choose the network — Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X or YouTube — then Save. Only a clean link to that network’s own site is kept. Press an icon to open the account or copy its link; an account added by hand can be edited or removed (Remove asks for a second tap). Accounts that SkedX Signal joined to the person — an Instagram DM or a Messenger chat — show here too; they cannot be edited, only hidden on this contact, and Signal keeps the join. A handle typed by hand is only shown: it is never used to match people in Signal. On a phone the same panels open from the bottom of the screen. People who may view contacts but not edit them see the icons without +.

Keep each person’s Instagram, LinkedIn and other accounts one tap away on the enquiry, next to their email and phone.

## Step 1: Find the line of icons

Open an enquiry and choose **Contacts**. Under each person’s details is a line of account icons and a **+**.

## Step 2: Add an account with +

Press **+**. Paste their profile link — the network is picked from it — or type a handle and press the network. Then **Save**.

## Step 3: Open, copy, edit or remove

Press an icon: **Open** the account or **Copy link**. One you added by hand also has **Edit** and **Remove from this contact** — press Remove twice to confirm.

## Step 4: Accounts SkedX Signal joined

An Instagram or Messenger account SkedX Signal joined to the person (a DM or an ad chat) shows the same way, marked **Skode Signal**. It can’t be edited here; **Hide on this contact** keeps it off the line, and **+** then offers **Show … again**.

## Common questions

### Does a handle I type match the person in Signal?

No. It is shown on the contact only. SkedX Signal joins people by what they do — a DM, an ad chat, a shared email or phone — never by a typed handle, which can be renamed or mistyped.

### Why can’t I edit an Instagram account marked SkedX Signal?

It was not typed in; Signal joined it from the person’s own messages. You can hide it on this contact, and show it again from +.

### I don’t see the + button

Adding needs edit access to contacts. Ask your admin.

### Which links are accepted?

Profile links on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X and YouTube. Anything else is refused with the reason, so an icon never opens another site.
