Since a few days ago we've been getting an error response from Instagram API - it complains that we are using an invalid cursor 'min_id' when accessing the Tags endpoint. Thing is we don't use 'min_id'. We use 'min_tag_id', which according to the documentation ( deprecated & current ) is a valid cursor for this endpoint. Doing some research I see that some people have been getting unexpected errors too (though different ones) around this week. Example API request (plug an access token and paste in a browser to see for yourselves): https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/nofilter/media/recent?access

How can I get the user ID with the user name with instagram API without user authentication? If I try users/search, it returns multiple research results, so how can I be sure that I get the result of exact user name only? For example, following requests return multiple users having their usernames similiar to aliciakeys , I want to get only the data of the user with exact user name. https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/search?q=aliciakeys&access_token=[your token] If you know that the search term will always be the full username and you can simply iterate through the results and stop when the

According to the developer documentation clients are allowed to make 5000 requests per hour, but at the moment my application is being limited to 350 requests per hour. The error code I get is 400, and the message is "The number of maximum requests per hour has been exceeded. You have made XXX requests of the allowed 350, in last hour.". Do you know why this request limit is in place, and how it can be increased to the listed 5000? Note: My application uses the API to like certain images, but according to the documentation I should still get 5000 requests per hour. krisrak 5000 is total number

I'm making an Instagram analytics web app. I've carefully read all of the Instagram API endpoints and I can't find any way to get historical data (ie, followers over time). All I would need would be something like a date followed, attached to each follower object. However, there are Instagram analytics sites that offer this, for example, minter.io. https://minter.io/faq#faq-posting-1 From link above: " Minter.io provides full historical data on Instagram accounts and hashtags except for: Accounts – List of Lost Followers Hashtags – Reach and Exposure In these reports the data will only be

I'm new to android development and I am trying to play multiple videos in a listview. Currently, each listview row item is a VideoView. This approach has not worked as the VideoViews act abnormally when I begin to scroll. I've researched here , here , here and discovered that VideoViews and TextureViews don't work well within ListViews and ScrollViews. How are apps like vine and instagram able to play videos in listviews? Any help is greatly appreciated? Although the answer is late but i think it might help someone searching for the same. There is a sample app from the github that has

Instagram's Postgres method of implementing custom Ids for Sharding is great, but I need the implementation in MySQL. So, I converted the method found at the bottom of this blog, here: http://instagram-engineering.tumblr.com/post/10853187575/sharding-ids-at-instagram MySQL Version: CREATE TRIGGER shard_insert BEFORE INSERT ON tablename FOR EACH ROW BEGIN DECLARE seq_id BIGINT; DECLARE now_millis BIGINT; DECLARE our_epoch BIGINT DEFAULT 1314220021721; DECLARE shard_id INT DEFAULT 1; SET now_millis = (SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW(3)) * 1000); SET seq_id = (SELECT AUTO_INCREMENT FROM information

I'm using Play framework to develop consumer for Instagram real-time API. But still could not perform x-hub-signature verification properly. So, how can we perform Instagram x-hub-signature verification using Java and Play framework? Here is my current code: From the Play framework, I obtain the JSON payload using this method: public static Result receiveInstaData(){ JsonNode json = request().body().asJson(); //obtain the x-hub-signature from the header //obtain the corresponding client secret VerificationResult verificationResult = SubscriptionUtil.verifySubscriptionPostSignature(
