  5. You will now see your post on the plan grid. You're all set! 

To Note: Due to changes Instagram made to their API, Instagram no longer provides thumbnail URLs through their API endpoint, which means we're unable to retrieve, add, or store images for missing posts the way we used to. 

To upload a thumbnail, you'll need to do so on the web dashboard. Mobile uploading thumbnails is not available at this time. 

These imported posts are visual placeholders only. They won't include analytics or performance metrics at this time in our Instagram Planner. Only posts scheduled through Planoly will show engagement data, reach, and other insights. This keeps your grid complete while maintaining the analytics you rely on for posts managed through our platform.
