Instagram Business Module/Webhooks - "New Follower" event trigger (?)

Objective:

  • Getting notified of a new follower so a workflow can be triggered and executed.
    Issue:
  • Cannot find anything within Instagram Business module that watches for new follower event.
    Any solutions already tried?

There are no Instagram Business triggers available for new followers.

According to How to get instagram new followers by using API in php? - Stack Overflow, the workaround is you’ll need to get your business account’s followers and compare it to the last fetched follower list, to get the new followers.

Thanks a lot @samliew for doing the research for this query.
Do you happen to know if Instagram Graph API allows for fetching of follower data (e.g. instagram id)?
