Some hints to set up your instagram app

Private

Connector Configuration

Now head back to the backend (System => Social Data => Connector Configuration) and checkout the instagram tab.

Click on Install
Click on Enable
Before you hit the Connect button, you need to fill you out the Connector Configuration. After that, click "Save".
Click Connect

Connection

This will guide you through the instagram token generation. After hitting the "Connect" button, a popup will open to guide you through instagram authentication process. If everything worked out fine, the connection setup is complete after the popup closes. Otherwise, you'll receive an error message. You may then need to repeat the connection step.

Feed Configuration

Name	Description
`Limit`	Define a limit to restrict the amount of social posts to import (Default: 50)

Extended Connector Configuration

Normally you don't need to modify connector (connector_config) configuration, so most of the time you can skip this step. However, if you need to change some core setting of a connector, you're able to change them of course.

# app/config/config.yml
social_data:
    available_connectors:
        -   connector_name: instagram
            connector_config:
                api_connect_permission_private: ['user_profile', 'user_media'] # default value
                api_connect_permission_business: ['pages_show_list', 'instagram_basic'] # default value
