I anticipate, however, that the feature that allows you to do this is only available for business accounts that have at least 10.000 followers. If your account meets this fundamental requirement, in fact, you can add the link to your channel or a YouTube video and invite users to open it by performing a simple swipe up (i.e. a swipe from bottom to top, to be performed while playing the story on Instagram).

To proceed with the insertion of the YouTube link in the Instagram story, access Instagram from the official app of the service for Android or iOS, press on the symbol of the camera (top left) and make the story, taking a photo or recording a video on the spot (via the shutter / record button at the bottom) or by taking the content from the Gallery (using the square located at the bottom left).

Next, tap on the icon chain located at the top of the screen. In the screen that has opened, then presses onicon (+) Web Link and enter the link of your interest in the appropriate text field: you can paste it (after having previously copied it) by keeping your finger pressed on the text field in question and selecting the item Paste from the menu that opens on the screen.

To make sure that everything went the right way, tap on the wording See a preview and, if everything is OK, click on the button end. Then tap on the item The tua storia (bottom left), to publish the story.
