How to add a link to my Instagram story?

Instagram has added a feature where users can add a link in their story posts quite some time back, but still many find it difficult to use it. Though initially, it was certain users who were liable to use the function where the links showed up at the bottom as a swipe-up button. 

Earlier, it was the users who use to have over 10,000+ users who had the privilege to swipe up and link stories on Instagram. Now, with the new update, Instagram has enabled the user to add links to any part of the story. 

But if you still are confused about how to add links to your Instagram Stories, here we bring to you the guide to do the same.

  • You may either use a photo or a video to update your story 
  • Once the photo or video is placed, you can swipe up to find the sticker tray with the ‘Link’ option written
