I keep seeing my favorite creators talking about their Instagram broadcast channels. How do I actually find and join one of these channels—do I need to wait for them to share a link in their story, or can I search for and request to join directly from their profile?
Instagram broadcast channels are typically accessed via links shared by creators or directly from their profile when they enable the feature. You cannot search for or request to join channels directly through an Instagram search. Usually, you need them to share an invite link in their stories or posts, which you can then click to join.
