What type of account do you need?
If you want to automatically reply to messages in your Instagram DM, you need to have a Business account or a Creator account.
When you have a personal account (not a professional one), you cannot automatically reply to messages in your Instagram DM.

Connect your Facebook Page to your Instagram account
If you want to automatically reply to messages in your Instagram DM, a Facebook Page must be linked to your Instagram account.
You can do this by going to your Facebook Page - Settings - Instagram.
Here you can see whether your Facebook Page is connected to an Instagram account. If it's not connected, a button shows up and you can use that to connect your Facebook Page to your Instagram account.
