Instagram Business to LinkedIn Business

Hi Guys, I want to create a simple automation but running into issues.
I want to take an IG Business Post, and then post in on LinkedIn Business page. I want it to look native, as in no links for the image, but for the image to be a part of the post like so:

So far, I've only been able to achieve this with a personal LinkedIn, and not a business one. I've tried various LinkedIn Actions, and the ones that do allow for a business page, give errors. For example, in this example, I get: Failed to upload file, name too long:

Am I missing something? I just want a post with an image in the post (not link). Thanks in advance

Hello @computer_kid,

Could you please try performing the action with a shorter content name and let us know if it works for you?

If the issue persists, it would be helpful if you could share a short screen recording showing the steps you’ve taken. This will allow us to better understand the situation and assist you more effectively.
 
I tried adding a short content name, which works fine. The content name is not the problem, its the IG image URL, however, this is something I have no control over. I added a task ID in my original post.

Please try uploading the file to Imgur, which will provide you with a shorter URL. Then, pass this shortened URL to the LinkedIn action step and see if that resolves your issue.

I discarded Imgur, and added in Google Drive. I tried:
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id={map the file id here} in the LinkedIn Step
But that did not work.

I got rid of "&amp"
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id= {map the file id here}
and it kind of works. I am able to see thumbnail for the link.
But what I want for it is to look like a native post, similar to this video:
I want a full image like if it was added through a new LinkedIn post, and for a business page.
