Instagram Profile Picture Viewer bot for Telegram

This bot helps you to download profile picture of any Instagram user. Note: For security reasons and to prevent API abuse, the API being used is stored in environment variables

Usage

Use this link to get started t.me/instagram_dp_bot or search for @instagram_dp_bot

It has two commands:

  1. /start : Initializes the bot and displays help
  2. /get username : This command to get profile picture of specified username
  3. instagram url : Directly paste the instagram profile url

Development

Previously, this bot was built using python (available here), but now I have switched to Node.JS

_Note: the bot assumes that the API Token and API URL is available in the environment variables as API_TOKEN as PROFILE_PIC_API, be sure to set it before running the bot_

git clone https://github.com/boxdox/insta_dp_telegram_bot.git
