1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To create Instagram posts from Telegram, we will use Pabbly Connect as our integration platform. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect homepage. If you are a new user, click on the ‘Sign Up for Free’ button to create an account. Existing users can click on ‘Sign In’ to access their dashboard.

Once logged in, you will see options for various applications. Click on ‘Access Now’ to enter the dashboard where you can create and manage workflows. This is where you will set up the automation between Telegram and Instagram using Pabbly Connect.


2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will create a workflow that automates the process of sharing images from Telegram to Instagram. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ option. A dialog box will prompt you to name your workflow; enter ‘Create Instagram Post from Telegram’.

  • Name your workflow appropriately.
  • Select a folder to save your workflow.
  • Click on ‘Create’ to initiate the workflow setup.

After creating the workflow, you will see two sections: Trigger and Action. Select Telegram as the trigger application and Instagram as the action application. This setup allows Pabbly Connect to manage the communication between both applications seamlessly.


3. Setting Up the Telegram Trigger

For the trigger, choose Telegram and then select the trigger event as ‘New Message’. Click on ‘Connect’ to create a new connection with your Telegram bot. You will need to provide a token to connect your Telegram account with Pabbly Connect.

To obtain the token, search for ‘BotFather’ in your Telegram app. Start a chat and send the command ‘new bot’. Follow the prompts to create your bot and receive the token. Copy this token back to Pabbly Connect to complete the connection setup.

  • Create a new bot using BotFather.
  • Copy the token provided by BotFather.
  • Paste the token into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

After saving the settings, you can test the connection by sending a message in your Telegram group. This will allow Pabbly Connect to capture the message data for the next steps.


4. Configuring the Instagram Action

Now that we have set up the trigger, it’s time to configure the action for Instagram. Select Instagram for Business as the action application and choose the action event as ‘Publish Photo’. Click on ‘Connect’ to establish a connection with your Instagram account.

After successful authorization, you will need to fill in the required fields such as the photo URL and caption. For the photo URL, use the download link obtained from the previous Telegram step. Map the caption field from the Telegram message to ensure the correct caption is used when posting on Instagram.

Select ‘Publish Photo’ as the action event. Map the photo URL and caption fields correctly. Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify the setup.

Once you have completed these steps, you can test the workflow by sending an image with a caption in your Telegram group. If everything is set up correctly, Pabbly Connect will automatically post the image on your Instagram account.


5. Testing and Verifying the Automation

To ensure that your automation works flawlessly, send an image along with a caption in your Telegram group. After sending the message, check your Instagram account to see if the post has been created successfully. This step confirms that the integration via Pabbly Connect is functioning as intended.

It’s essential to test the workflow multiple times with different images and captions to ensure consistency. Each time you send a new image, Pabbly Connect should automatically share it on Instagram without any manual intervention.

By following these steps, you can streamline your social media management and consistently share content from Telegram to Instagram. This integration not only saves time but also enhances your online presence.
