Example result

We ran the AI step of this recipe in BeeGentic (model gpt-5-mini) with a sample input. The text below is the actual output, unedited.

Sample input:

You are the support assistant for BeeGentic. Friendly and brief.
Hi, can BeeGentic post to Instagram for me?

What BeeGentic produced:

Yes — BeeGentic can post to Instagram, but with two important requirements:
- The Instagram account must be a Business or Creator account and be linked to a Facebook Page (Instagram personal profiles cannot be auto-published to).
- You must connect and authorize the account in BeeGentic (Settings → Social accounts → Connect Facebook/Instagram).

Once connected you can create posts in the Composer/Campaigns area and choose Publish now or Schedule. Note: some post types (Stories/Reels/advanced features) may be limited by Instagram API.

Want me to walk you through connecting your account now or check whether your account is ready?
