I am looking for a twitter API to fetch top 10 users with most followers. Does any such API exist?
The Twitter API does not have this. The API is documented here https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs

I'm trying to create an app in which I would like to display user feeds from social media apps like Instagram. I want the data to be as live as possible so I tried to integrate Instagram Webhooks. I have created a server side application with Instagram's authentication and a callback url for webhooks through which I want to fetch data from Instagram and then store it in a database.
I have been going through the Official documentation. I was able to get User id, name, comments through Instagram API and I have also subscribed Instagram's webhooks in my meta developer's application. It didn't throw any error but when I like or comment on my post I couldn't get any object in the callback URL. I'm completely new to this so It would be great if someone could explain me how to do this?
I want to get latest images from instagram account and I am using this url
https://graph.instagram.com/me/media/?fields=id,media_type,media_url,thumbnail_url,permalink,caption&access_token={account-token} and it get all posts in my instgram account.
Is there any way to get only posts with specific hashtag?
Not right now, Hashtag Search API is only available as part of Instagram Graph API
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api/reference/ig-hashtag-search/
I am working on an app, which does the below:
A user logins using instagram User creates content and shares it with a subset of her instagram followers ( say 3 out of 200)
Those 3 users get a message in their insta inbox and can click on a link
and sign up on our app.
I am trying to find Insta API documentation, but I am unable to. Can someone experienced with Insta API's please guide to me to specific parts of the Instagram API documentation which can do What I am imagining?
Thanks
The thing that you are trying to create is not possible by using official Instagram APIs. None of the APIs returns the list of followers for given user. It is also not possible to send a Direct message via Instagram API.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api here is the introduction to Instagram Graph API. Right on the top of that page you will find possible use-case scenarios.
There is also more limited Basic Display API which documentation and possible use-cases you can find here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-basic-display-api
Is there an API service to fetch my linkedin and Instagram contacts and to send direct messages to them? I need the API to integrate the above mentioned functionality in an application. Are there any restrictions to it?
This is for a mobile application to be developed. I am using react-native and Instagram v1 and linkedin v2 APIs. I was able to get my basic information and create posts in LinkedIn (not Instagram)
I found out that there have been restrictions imposed in v2. I need to know if my requirement is possible.
No it is not possible to send direct messages after the v2 release of LinkedIn APIs and Instagram graph API.
For LinkedIn:
If you have created a LinkedIn app after Jan 2018 you can by default use only v2 API to fetch basic Profile data and share posts.
The connections of the user can be fetched using the connections API in compliance solutions, but it is not for daily use and has restrictions.
More details on connections API check https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/shared/integrations/people/connections-api?context=linkedin/compliance/context
For Instagram:
It is clear from Instagram graph API docs that it is meant for Instagram business and creator accounts. For non business accounts you can use v1 APIs but only get access to users basic details and follower counts. This too shall be deprecated by early 2020.
APIs for fetching followers details, commenting on posts etc have been disabled already by December 2018.
Check the changelogs of Instagram v1 APIs.
Recently, Instagram/Facebook stopped approving apps using their old Instagram API in favor of Facebook's graph api.
I'm struggling to figure out how to migrate of some of the functionality I'm wanting in my app.
With instagram, to get recent images with a given tag, you simply made a request to this URL:
https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/{tag-name}/media/recent?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN
Does the Facebook graph api for instagram have that? I couldn't find it in their documentation.
The new graph API does not support all the APIs that the old Instagram API supported. You cannot get images by hashtag and location and any user's posts, like you could with old APIs.
With new graph API you can only access your photos and your insights and comments.
No hashtag posts, other user posts, location posts or follower lists.
