Hey @PavanDhananjaya !

Kindly provide us with the workflow URL in which you have tried the setup and is not working?

So we can check on it and guide you further.

Having same issue through an image i am trying to post. I have got the export link from Canva and posted the media to Facebook page, but the same link is not working for Instagram. But by the time you check it the link of Canva would have expired. I tried using it through GDrive also but got the same error messages as below. Would appreciate some help.

Please try uploading the file to Imgur, which will provide you with a shorter URL. Then, pass this shortened URL to the Instagram action step and see if that resolves your issue.

Is there no other way? Don’t want to pay and use another app just for storing images.

Upload the file to Google Drive, make it publicly accessible, and use the downloadable link to upload it to your Instagram account. We uploaded the file to our Google Drive for testing, then used the same link in your workflow, and it seems to have fixed the issue.

fantastic. it worked. i had forgotten to share the folder publicly in google drive so the link was not accessible. sorry for the inconvenience for this beginner error.
