Same issue for me.

After a bit of digging the problem seems to be ClearClientCache field in the search.go file is declared as a bool, but the JSON response from Instagram's API contains an empty array for this field. To resolve this, I modified the struct declaration as follows:

// Original line commented out for reference
// ClearClientCache bool `json:"clear_client_cache"`
ClearClientCache []interface{} `json:"clear_client_cache"`

This change seems to fix the unmarshaling issue. However, I’m unsure if this modification might cause problems elsewhere in the future. If anyone is more familiar with the goinsta library or has insights into why this error occurred, your input would be greatly appreciated.
