Carousel Image setup for Instagram

[CyberG7]

What is your goal?

I want to post the multiple image like carousel in Instagram as exactly like how it works for Facebook now.

What is the problem & what have you tried?

I already setup a complete workflow, where the images link stored in sheets. and take that and post it in the respective Facebook and Instagram. But when i try the method and step for Instagram it shows error. I did try few workaround and chatgpt and nothing can able to resolve and end up losing my already working workflow. Please help me resolve this.

Hey @CyberG7 !

Your Instagram module is expecting each item in that mapped Files array to include media_type, not just the image URL.

Right now you’re passing an array of files, but the Instagram carousel post module needs each file object to contain both the file value and its media type. That’s why it throws the missing media_type error for every image.

You need to build the array in the structure the Instagram module expects, with each item marked as IMAGE, then map that array into Files.
