Hey there, Instagram doesn't return any user data after authentication. We need to make a separate request. I wrote a complete guide on using Instagram's Basic Display API, which you can find here: https://blog.maskys.com/using-the-instagram-basic-display-api-in-flutter/

@Clancey, would you consider doing this internally in InstagramApi?

[Clancey]

Correct, Making a call to get the user profile is a separate call. The google version has the user profile stubbed out. I am not against having some api calls built in.

Hello, is it possible to update the _loginAndGetData() function to the new Flutter version? Because I have the return The argument type 'Future Function(Account)' can't be assigned to the parameter type 'FutureOr Function(Account?)'.
