Instagram Reels Posting from Airtable

Tools that fit

Watch out for

• ⚠ The 90-second wait is mandatory for processing, so ensure your n8n workflow timeout settings are high enough to prevent premature failures.
• ⚠ Instagram requires a valid access token with manage_pages and instagram_content_publish scopes, so verify permissions before starting the build.
• ⚠ Airtable row updates can fail if multiple instances of the workflow run simultaneously, add a locking mechanism or unique record ID check to avoid race conditions.
• ⚠ The Instagram Graph API has strict file size and format limits for reels, validate video specs in Airtable before attempting upload to save API quota.
