16 things your agent can do in Instagram

Instagram is a social media platform for sharing photos, videos, and stories. Only supports Instagram Business and Creator accounts, not Instagram Personal accounts.

Every action, grouped by what it does

You do not pick these by hand. Describe what the agent should do and Squidgy grants the matching ones — an agent told to draft replies gets the drafting action and not the sending one.

About connecting Instagram

What can an AI agent do in Instagram?

16 distinct actions, listed in full on this page — 6 to read, 2 to create & update, 7 to send & publish, 1 to manage. An agent gets the ones that match what you described it doing, not all of them at once.

How do I connect Instagram?

Once, in Settings → Integrations. Sign in with your account (OAuth). The connection is yours, shared by every agent you build — you are not re-authorising per agent, and the agent never sees your credentials.
