Frequently asked questions
How long are Story media URLs valid?
They expire quickly, so download and store the media in Airtable or cloud storage right away rather than relying on the original URL.
Can I auto-reshare?
Instagram's API is restrictive about Story resharing, so keeping a human-approved queue is the reliable approach.
