HTTP Request Node Failing with Facebook Graph API for Instagram Automation - "Only photo or video can be accepted as media type" Error

Hello everyone! I work on an automated Instagram posting workflow and everything works perfectly, except for a stubborn requirement node. Here is my setup: Workflow Flow: Google Drive Trigger → Download file → In IMGBB → Message a model → Inquiry (failed here) → Inquiry #2 The problem: My first requirement node should be created. accepted as a media type. Model what I tried: The IMGBB -URL works perfectly if it is accessed directly on the browser access token, is valid and has a correct authorization. The picture is JPG and under size Limits Environment: N8N version: 1.111.0 (Selfhosted) All other nodes in the workflow execute have successfully dealt with the API of Facebook's selection of Facebook APIs about the image of hosting services? Should I switch to a direct binary upload instead of using external URLs? All findings would be very appreciated! Thanks in advance!
