Sending a Request Through the Comments Section
To request rights for Instagram content via comments:
Click on "copy to clipboard" button near your comment template
Click on "Request"

Advanced Version Features:
In the Advanced Plan, there is Automated consent management and auto tagging product :
Automated Consent Management: After clicking on "Request" on a media, the extension sends requests automatically and monitors the user's response thanks to a Chrome extension.
Automatic Post Status Update: When a user approves the request by replying with the hashtag, the post's status is automatically updated from "requested" to "approved" in the app's back office.
AI Product Tagging: The AI automatically tags the products displayed in the approved posts, streamlining the process even further.
Post Status After Sending a Request for UGC media
After sending a request, posts can have one of two statuses:
Requested: The request has been sent, awaiting the creator’s response.
Approuved: The creator has accepted the request by replying with the hashtag.
If the media comes from your own feed, there is obviously no need to request rights, and the status automatically changes from 'Approuve' to 'Approved'
