Summary

Sends an Instagram direct message to a recipient identified by their Instagram-scoped user ID (IGSID). Choose a text message or an image attachment; the node posts each input item’s message to Instagram using the configured credential or an access token override.

Inputs

  • Recipient IGSID (required) — Instagram-scoped user ID of the recipient, such as one obtained from a webhook event or conversation.
  • Message Type — Choose Text (default) or Image.
  • Text — Message body used when Message Type is Text.
  • Image URL — Image URL used as the attachment when Message Type is Image.
  • Graph API Version — Instagram Graph API version; defaults to v21.0.
  • Access Token (Override) — Optional token used instead of the Instagram Login API credential. Can be an expression to select a token per input item.

Output shape

One item per input item, containing Instagram’s response to the send-message request.

The request uses the /{version}/me/messages endpoint. With Continue On Fail enabled, failed items are returned as {"error": "..."}.
