Create a design document for auto-posting integration with Instagram #5958

Create a design document for auto-posting Integration with Instagram. It should be the same as with Twitter or FB auto-posting.

Prefer we update the current auto-posting document and create a v2 version.

I worked on this task and went through the Instagram API. There is no webhook in Instagram which would let us know when a new image or video is posted on Instagram. There are only webhooks which help us in moderating comments, mentions and Insights. i.e. it only helps those apps which are there for admins to automate the customer engagement on Instagram Platform i.e. by automating responses to comments etc.

I have document what I found and learnt from Instagram API in this document. We can later think on providing Instagram as separate platform on KiboPush but still the API is very small and not much interesting.

This was discussed in meeting. Should we close it?

jekram commented 4 years ago

we should open the task for next steps

As discussed, autoposting is not possible with Instagram as the API doesn't allow this for now. Please let me know what next step should be here.
