What can my agent do in Instagram for Business?

It can call 27 tools, including Upload Photo, Upload Reel, Publish Story, and chain them with steps in other apps inside the same run.

Is it safe to let an agent call Instagram for Business?

Connections use OAuth2 with limited scopes and are stored under 256-bit encryption, with no API to read them back, so an agent gets scoped access rather than your keys.
