I have set up a Zapier to upload images on my Instagram page daily. Since I was uploading an image hourly, the API must’ve been exhausted. Or so I had thought. But after having waited for days (four), it still gives limit reached error. How long will this last, is this a bug, is there a fix, or am I toast?

To prevent spam, they temporarily stopped the post.
It is an Instagram restriction.

I have already waited for 2 days and 4 days on two separate instances. And other tools like Pipedream don't have this problem, only Zapier. My auto-posting workflows still work for Pipedream for the same account.

The error response is from Meta, not from Zapier.
It’s likely you will have to try to resolve the issue with Meta.
