Actions

-
Get media URL
Returns the URL corresponding to a received media attachment. Currently a passthrough: it echoes back the URL received in the webhook. TODO: integrate with S3 to download from Meta and rehost so the URL stays valid beyond Meta's temporary access window.

Send a text message
Send a direct text message to a user that has previously contacted your Instagram account. Note: Instagram only allows replies within 24h after the user's last message.
-
Send an image
