Instagram for Business + Google Slides + Airtable: When a new media is posted on Instagram, its insights are retrieved and a new record is created in Airtable with the media details and insights. Periodically, performance reports are generated in Google Slides based on the data in Airtable. Note: The slides action would require an additional automation or manual trigger.
