Instagram (Graph API)

How to set up Instagram Graph access through a Meta Business app and connect it to Nora.
Instagram’s API runs on top of the Facebook Graph API — same Meta Business app, same access tokens, additional instagram_* scopes. The integration covers Instagram Business and Creator accounts (not personal accounts).

​
Where to apply for credentials

Same flow as Facebook:
1

Convert your Instagram account

Switch to a Business or Creator account in the Instagram app.
2

Connect to a Facebook Page

Link the Instagram account to a Facebook Page (via Instagram → Settings → Account → Linked accounts).
3

Find the Business Account ID

Use Graph API Explorer: GET /<page-id>?fields=instagram_business_account returns the Instagram business account ID.
4

Mint a token

Long-lived User or Page token with instagram_basic, instagram_content_publish, pages_show_list.
