Posting instagram stories

Questions
1

Hi, I’m trying to figure out if it’s possible to automate posting Instagram stories.

Another tool is being used to schedule and post content, but there is no option to post it on stories. I’m thinking of making a workflow that watches when a new Instagram post is live and posts it on stories.

Anyone done anything similar before?

Based on a quick google search this is what I found. Im not sure how viable posting stories are from APIs:

Limitations: Instagram API and Stories

  • Instagram Stories Posting:
    As of 2025, the official Instagram Graph API does not support programmatic posting of Stories for regular users, business, or creator accounts. The API allows you to publish feed posts (images, videos, carousels) but not Stories4.
    • There are third-party tools and unofficial workarounds (like browser automation or mobile emulation), but these methods are not officially supported, can be unreliable, and may violate Instagram’s terms of service.

You can upload Intstagram stories using this : Upload-Post - API for uploading videos to TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, Youtube & more

Just use a HTTP node. Social media APIs are one heck of a trouble to work with. Just use Upload Post
