Minor May 23, 2026 Instagram Publishing – Degraded Success Rate 4d 10h Buffer iOS App, Publishing, Buffer Android App
Started May 23, 2026, 07:57 AM UTC· resolved May 27, 2026, 06:02 PM UTC
- identified May 23, 2026, 07:57 AM UTC
We have identified an ongoing issue affecting Instagram publishing through Buffer. Approximately 35% of Instagram publishing attempts are currently failing. Our investigation indicates this is caused by a degradation in Meta's Instagram Graph API, specifically during the media publishing process. Buffer's systems are operating normally — posts are being submitted successfully, but Meta's API is returning errors when processing them. No other networks (Facebook, Threads, LinkedIn, etc.) are affected. We recommend not retrying failed posts at this time, as the issue is on Meta's side and repeated attempts are unlikely to succeed until Meta resolves the degradation. We are actively monitoring the situation and will provide updates as the status changes. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
- identified May 25, 2026, 08:58 AM UTC
We're continuing to see issues with publishing to Instagram. Other tools using Meta's API have reported similar issues. We've reported the issue to Meta and will share updates as we have them.
- identified May 26, 2026, 05:20 AM UTC
We've deployed a temporary fix that has restored Instagram publishing success rates to normal levels while we wait for Meta to roll out a permanent fix on their end. If you have failed posts from earlier, you can retry them now. If a retry doesn't go through, refreshing your Instagram channel connection should help. We're continuing to monitor closely.
- monitoring May 27, 2026, 05:24 PM UTC
Meta's engineering team have resolved the underlying API issue, and our monitoring is indicating a return to normal success rates. We'll keep an eye on this for now to ensure the fix is stable.
- resolved May 27, 2026, 06:02 PM UTC
Meta's engineers have confirmed that the issue with Instagram's API has been fully resolved, and we're happy to confirm that we're seeing publishing rates back to normal levels. We appreciate your understanding and apologise for any disruption this may have caused.

We are currently aware that customers are hitting error messages when attempting to make new LinkedIn channel connections, as well as when trying to refresh existing LinkedIn connections in Buffer, too. This issue is coming from LinkedIn's own API, and is something that they are currently investigating, too.

We're very sorry for the inconvenience that this is causing and we hope we will be able to resume normal service with LinkedIn again soon.
- resolved May 20, 2026, 04:00 PM UTC
