Cursor and Instagram questions
Can Cursor post to Instagram?
Yes. Connect your Instagram account in dopost and follow the Cursor setup guide.
Can Cursor post Instagram Reels?
Yes. Ask for a Reel and Cursor sets the post type to reel. Add "only in the Reels tab" to keep it out of the main feed.
Do I need a Meta developer app or API key?
No. You connect Instagram once in dopost and Cursor uses that connection. There is no developer account, review or token to manage.
Can I check my Instagram results?
Yes. You can check the available metrics for your Instagram accounts and posts.
Can I review content before scheduling?
You can ask the agent to show you the content before scheduling it.
