How to Copy a Link to an Instagram Post or Reel

Sharing the link to an Instagram post or Reel is essential for running giveaways, collaborating with influencers, or simply sending content to friends and followers. In 2025, Instagram offers several quick ways to copy links, whether you are on mobile or desktop.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to copying Instagram links.


Step 1: Copy a Link from the Mobile App

  1. Open the Instagram app on your phone
  2. Navigate to the post or Reel you want to share
  3. Tap the three dots (⋮) in the top-right corner of the post
  4. Select “Copy link” from the menu

The link will be saved to your clipboard, and you can paste it anywhere — in a giveaway tool like TakiDaki, a message, or your browser.


Step 2: Copy a Link from Desktop (Web Browser)

If you’re using Instagram on a computer:

  1. Open Instagram.com in your browser and log in
  2. Find the post or Reel you want to share
  3. Click on the post to open it in full view
  4. Copy the URL from the address bar

This method is convenient for managing giveaways or exporting comments on a larger screen.


Step 3: Copy a Link from Instagram Stories (If Allowed)

Instagram Stories are temporary and not all can be shared, but if the account allows sharing:

  1. Open the Story
  2. Tap the three dots (⋮) in the bottom-right corner
  3. Select “Copy link” if the option appears

If the account is private or sharing is disabled, copying the Story link will not be possible.


Step 4: Use the Link for Giveaways

Once you have the link, you can:

  • Share it in emails, DMs, or chats
  • Submit it to giveaway platforms like TakiDaki
  • Export comments or select winners without giving account access

TakiDaki allows you to paste the post or Reel link to instantly fetch comments and run a fair giveaway.

Copying an Instagram link is a small but essential step for giveaways, collaborations, and promotions. By knowing how to quickly grab links on mobile and desktop, you can streamline your content sharing and run campaigns more efficiently.
