Inputs

• Node (required) — Instagram Business Account ID or User ID on which to publish the reel.
• Graph API Version (required) — Facebook Graph API version to use for the request (e.g., 'v22.0').
• Video URL (required) — URL of the video to publish as the reel.
• Caption (required) — Caption text to accompany the reel post.

Output shape

a list of JSON objects representing the API response for each published reel item

Returns the Instagram API's JSON response on successful publication. If the publishing process encounters errors (e.g., invalid URL, publishing failure), the response includes error details. The node handles retries and polling to confirm container readiness before publishing.
