## AI overview

Chat SDK has added an Instagram adapter for building bots that handle DMs, media, quick replies, typing indicators, reactions, and story replies. It uses Meta's Instagram Messaging API and is subject to account and 24-hour reply-window requirements.

## Source excerpt

You can now build bots for Instagram with the new Instagram adapter for Chat SDK. Bots can send and receive DMs and media, render cards as quick replies and link buttons, show typing indicators, receive reactions, and handle story replies. The adapter connects through Meta's Instagram Messaging API and requires a professional Business or Creator account. Messages are buffered, so streamed responses send as one message when the stream completes. Meta enforces a 24-hour messaging window, so bots can only reply within a day of the user's last message.
