Marketing & Social

What the Instagram connector can do

Instagram's Business and Creator API covers publishing, comments, and messaging for accounts that are not personal profiles. With an Instagram connection in type.com, the agent can build a carousel post draft before it goes live, remove a comment your account posted, or clear messenger profile settings, so a social team can prep and manage content in the same thread as the content calendar.

One connection, many Spaces

Connect Instagram once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.

What teams do with Instagram in type.com

Draft a carousel before publishing

Ask the agent to assemble a multi-image carousel container so the team can review it before it goes live.

Try asking
Create an Instagram carousel container with these 4 product photos for tomorrow's launch post.

Remove a comment your account posted

Have the agent delete a comment that your business account made in error, since only your own comments can be removed.

Try asking
Delete the comment our account left on the influencer's Instagram post this morning, it had a typo.

Reset messenger profile settings

Get the agent to clear existing messenger configuration before setting up a new greeting or menu for direct messages.

Try asking
Delete our current Instagram messenger profile settings so we can rebuild the greeting message from scratch.

API and auth details

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Instagram

Can Claude manage Instagram Business posts from type.com?

Yes. With an Instagram connection shared to a Space, the agent can draft carousels, manage comments, and reset messenger settings in a thread, visible to the whole team. Personal accounts are not supported.

How does type.com authenticate with Instagram?

Instagram uses Meta's OAuth business login, subject to Meta's app review process. An admin completes sign-in once on the connection and chooses which Spaces can use it.

Can Instagram posting be scheduled?

Yes. A content draft can be prepared as a type.com automation ahead of a publish window, with the final post still reviewed in a thread before it goes live.

Is this the same as an MCP server for Instagram?

Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
