Autopost using Freepik AI Images, google drive and Instagram

How To
1

Hey guys, I had a scenario that was working 100% on Make. Every day, the scenario would fetch health news, generate image prompts, create the image on Freepik, save it to Drive, post the photo + caption created on GPT to Instagram, and delete the image from Drive.

However, since yesterday, I’ve been getting errors: Only photo or video can be accepted as media type. (9004, OAuthException). I’ve added the URLs, checked everything, and the URL is correct. Instagram is refusing to post the image and I don’t know what to do.

I’ve tried using Get File, switching to Dropbox, and absolutely NOTHING works. The Freepik image comes in base64, I convert it to binary when saving to Drive. Any light?

Welcome to the Make community!

I think Google Drive and OneDrive is starting to block Instagram. Try another file hosting service.

Examples of such services include Imgur, Flickr, and Cloudinary.

You can also use Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, etc. You can find more file hosting integrations here: https://www.make.com/en/integrations/category/storage.

Hi @samliew

would it be possible to add this image directly to wordpress?

@Sergio_Manzanero I do not know what you mean by “this image” with regards to your scenario. For faster responses, next time please create a new question about your scenario.

While it’s tempting to continue an existing thread, a more effective approach would be to start a new topic. It helps other community users to respond to your query, and keeps our space organised for everyone. If you start a new conversation you are also more likely to get help from other users. You can refer others back to a related topic by including that link in your question. Thank you for understanding and keeping our community neat and tidy.

The “New Topic” link can be found in the top-right of the header:
