I think Square automatically created a Facebook Page for me when I created my "Book Now" button on Instagram. The catch is, I don't have administrative access to that Facebook Page so I can't even edit it. I disconnected my Appointments by Square account on Instagram to reset things and when I try to reconnect, it says that I need permission from my own business to complete the process. Not only can I not add the "Book Now" button to my Instagram page even when I am the account admin but I don't even have administrative access to the Facebook Page that Square created under my business name. How would I go about resolving this issue?

Forgot to mention: I created my own Facebook Page where I do have administrative access but when I try to integrate Appointments by Square for booking appointments to that Page, I get an error saying that I need administrative permission from my business name. I don't even have the option to claim that Facebook Page created by Square and checking the Page Transparency, there is no admin or owner of the page.
