(#100) Unsupported post type. The post has too few or too many attachments to qualify as a carousel. |
It looks like you have single-image posts uploaded as carousels. Since a carousel post must have multiple images to be considered a carousel post, your content is failing for that same reason.
When you are uploading to your PLANOLY account, you will want to make sure to select upload as a single post instead of uploading as a carousel. Once you have uploaded a certain way, you cannot revert that carousel to a single image. You will need to re-upload all single posts as a single post and reschedule.

Application request limit reached (#200) / We restrict certain activities to protect our community. Tell us if you think we made a mistake. If you receive this error, please re-upload your post and try again - your carousel may have too many images. |

The requested resource does not exist. |
You will need to swap the media and re-save it to the schedule. This just means that the media did not save properly when you were scheduling your auto-post the first time, so if you swap the media by uploading the same image again, and rescheduling, it should work for you next time. |

The media is not ready for publishing. Our systems are configured to automatically retry the publishing process in case this kind of Instagram error response appears. Usually one of the next tries is successful. If even after multiple attempts to publish your post it is not published successfully, please check your video / image file - it might not be eligible for publishing after all, due to incorrect resolution, bitrate, aspect ratio, etc. |
