node-red-contrib-instagram

Updated Node-RED node to retrieve connected user's Instagram media (IMAGE, VIDEO and CAROUSEL_ALBUM).

With the adoption of Facebook Graph API for Instagram, stricter permissions and OAuth tokens are now a requirement. This node uses the Facebook Instagram Basic Display API, and provides login, authentication and the provisioning of a long-life access token which is automatically refreshed by the configuration node.

Install

Run the following command in your ~/.node-red directory

    npm install node-red-contrib-instagram

Usage

Follow instructions in node setup to configure Instagram Basic Display API support for your linked account.

Send any message to it to trigger retrieval. You can also set a timed interval (18 seconds shortest – FB platform rate limit).

Note:

Up to 10K entries are retrieved. Traversing into a CAROUSEL_ALBUM media for child elements is not supported
