When the flow reaches this step, JOrchestrator executes Instagram Account Info against your linked site or an external integration, using the field values you set on General and Design. Downstream steps can read the output payload fields defined for this node.
Instagram Account Info is a action step in the Tags group. Action steps run in the middle or end of a flow. They perform work on your CMS, call external services, or transform data for the next step.
Typical reasons teams add Instagram Account Info to a flow:
Common patterns on the canvas:
Uses default Account ID from Node Configuration → Instagram unless overridden on the node.
Helpful to verify the connected account before publishing.
The designer shows these tabs for this node:
| Tab | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Info | Plain-language description and output payload fields for downstream steps |
| General | Canvas label and read-only node ID |
| AI | Optional assistant to help draft settings from plain language |
| Design | Node-specific configuration fields |
These fields are managed by the designer or runtime — you do not type into them directly:
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
_nodeId | Node ID | node-id | No | — | — |
_payloadFields | Available Fields | payload-panel | No | — | — |
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
label | Label | text | No | — | Node label |
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
instagramAccountId | Account ID (optional) | payload-text | No | — | Uses Joomla Node Configuration → Instagram default Account ID if empty |
Credentials, API keys, mailers, SMTP, and integration defaults are configured in the CMS plugin under Node Configuration, not per step on this node. Link the flow to a domain before testing CMS-backed fields.
After this step runs, later nodes can reference these fields using placeholders such as {{instagram_account_info.success}}.
| Field key | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
success | boolean | Whether the operation completed successfully. |
instagramAccountId | string | Text value from this node's output. |
username | string | Text value from this node's output. |
name | string | Display name of the record. |
profilePictureUrl | string | Text value from this node's output. |
followersCount | number | Numeric value from this node's output. |
mediaCount | number | Number of media attachments sent. |
message | string | Human-readable status, error, or result summary. |
