Hi Im trying to find a zap tutorial that enables you to take videos uploaded to a channel and upload the video to IG business. 

 

The few times I have tried I have gotten an error in the zap. Also It is telling me to do the image instead of a video, when i specifically want the video moved over.

 

Any suggestions?

Hi @sizzleld 

The Instagram Business Zap app integration only has 1 action available currently: Publish Photo

 

FYI: One thing to be aware of is this, which will apply to other apps as well.

SoftTimeLimitExceeded Error

The process of downloading the video (from the origin), and uploading it to YouTube must finish within 180 seconds (three minutes), otherwise, our system will cancel the process.
We suggest compressing your video in order for it to be uploaded properly.
