Hi, Can you let me how to automatically replace "\\n" into new line when posting to Insta.

I have tried using Text Formatter with Replace but still it's not working.

Hi @Alston,

Upon reviewing your workflow, I can see that you have correctly added the Text Formatter (Pabbly) – Replace Text step. However, the issue is that its output is not mapped in the Instagram for Business – Create (Upload) and Publish Photo action.

Currently, the Caption field is still mapped from the original response instead of the formatted result.

Please do the following:

  1. Open the Instagram for Business – Create (Upload) and Publish Photo step.
  2. In the Caption field, remove the existing mapped value.
  3. Map the Result field from Step 4 – Text Formatter (Replace Text) instead.
  4. Save and test the workflow again.

This will ensure that the replaced line breaks (
) are correctly passed to Instagram and prevent formatting-related issues.

Let us know once tested.
