Instagram DM Automation Setup
Budget: ₹1,500 – ₹12,500 INR
I am finalising a SaaS tool for Instagram automation and need a self-contained module that works exclusively with the Instagram API (no Facebook Graph involved). Two capabilities are missing:
• Auto-reply to incoming direct messages when the text contains specific keywords (exact, case-insensitive match).
• Auto-accept follow requests that arrive inside the user’s inbox.
The keyword list must be configurable through a simple endpoint or flat file, and the reply text should support basic placeholders such as {username}. A clean callback or webhook is fine for triggering the logic, but polling should be kept to the minimum allowed by Instagram’s limits.
Acceptance criteria
• Demonstrate both features running on a test account without hitting rate limits.
• Provide clear installation notes and concise, well-commented code so our in-house team can drop the module into our existing stack.
• Hand over a short postman collection or curl examples that show the endpoints in action.
