Instagram will add Reels to several endpoints on application-programming interfaces across its platform.

Support for Reels will be added to the APIs for basic display, business discovery, comment moderation, content publishing, hashtag search, insights, mentions and promote.

Instagram said the API enhancement will be available for the current version and all previous versions of Graph API.

Developers that already have access to the APIs listed above will automatically gain access to Reels without having to put their apps through an additional App Review as long as those apps have been approved for the appropriate permission access levels.
