Frequently asked questions
What happens if someone submits an invalid Instagram handle?
Gatsby will still create the contact record, but won't be able to gather Instagram insights for that handle. You can review contacts in Gatsby that show no data and reach out to clarify or correct the Instagram handle information.
Can I customize the form fields to collect additional information?
Yes, you can add more fields like phone number, company name, or follower count estimates. Just remember to also update the Create Contact step to map any new fields to the appropriate Gatsby contact properties.
Will this work if I already have contacts in Gatsby with the same email addresses?
Gatsby typically updates existing contacts when it receives duplicate email addresses rather than creating duplicates, so the Instagram handle and other information will be added to the existing contact record.
