Is there a way for me to get the logged in user's home time line in Instagram API?
I have tried hitting the https://www.instagram.com/developer/endpoints/users/#get_users_media_recent_self
but I only get the posts done by the logged in user and not by friends

As most of you know that LinkedIn has a feature, where if someone goes on your profile, you get a notification. So my thinking was that I use LinkedIn to find out who is clicking on my Instagram profile.
I added my LinkedIn profile to my Instagram Bio and I found a way to create an alternate URL that redirects back to my LinkedIn. However, I am not getting the LinkedIn notification indicating someone clicked on my profile.
What triggers the LinkedIn notification check?
What can I do to trigger it if someone clicks on the URL?
I need to display the followers list of instagram account in my website.
I have created app and generate access token successfully.
But if i run the instagram api to get the followers list, it shows me the empty result.
https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self/followed-by?access_token={access_token}
Can anyone help me to get the followers list.
In sandbox mode you will only see users approved to sandbox in API response.
Add one of your followers to sandbox users and let them accept it, then you will just see that user in the API response.
Once you get your app approved by Instagram and go live, you will see all (but I dont think Instagram is approving any app with permission other than basic anymore)
How is WEBSTAGRAM (https://web.stagram.com ) is able to show every user on instagram with every details.Don't they need the user permission to do so.The only case in which it not user photos is if the account is private.Have instagram given their api to use ?
They are scraping the Instagram website for photos of users and hashtags or using the private API of Instagram (which is not allowed).
Using the Instagram API or plugins (like Instafeed) I can show logged user's photos, but I wanna show logged user's friends' photos.
Yes, it is possible to show any public user's photos by getting public_content permission for API.
If the user's friend has private profile then you cannot access via API even if the user is approved and following the friend.
You have to get your app approved by instagram for public_content, which you may not get if your apps purpose does not meet one of the Instagram's approved use cases: https://www.instagram.com/developer/review/
Can I get likes by specific user using Instagram API? I saw this in Windows Phone app, but I can't find it in API docs.
Is it possible?
If I understand this correctly, you wish to get the most recently liked photos of a particular user.
This can be done using the Instagram API - but only when that particular user has authenticated your app.
You can use the following endpoint:
GET /users/self/media/liked
Here the API call would be :
https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self/media/liked?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN
This will give you the list of recent media liked by the owner of the ACCESS-TOKEN.
More details on the Instagram API here :

Unfortunately no, you can't.
This feature is only available on the Instagram app following this steps
To view the 300 most-recent posts you've liked, go to your account
settings in the app and then tap Posts You've Liked. You won't be able
