In Flickr, in your home page you can see all the photos from the users you are following. How can I get this data using the Flickr API? I couldn't find a proper method to do this.
You can use flickr.contacts.getList to get a list of a user's contacts, which is more or less the list of people that the user is following.

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
I need to get an instagram user stories and add them to my app.
I've searched a lot and didn't find any way to do such.
I tried to search it on instagram api and facebook graph api but it seems that they provide only own user data after the user is logged in.
How can i achieve that ?
Unfortunately this is not possible with the official Instagram Graph API.
I tried to find an answer without success.
I have an website that will show all twitter tweets and instagram posts based in a hashtag.
In twitter I authenticated userless, since I just wanted to show all tweets from a hashtag.
The problem is with Instagram, I already signed and I'm retrieving posts with:
https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/{tag}/media/recent?access_token=xxx
But the thing is that it only retrieves tags from my posts, instead I want it to search in the Instagram universe.
Is it possible?
It does retrieve the instagram posts (all the posts in instagram provided the privacy of the post is set to public). I have successfully did it in my open source Instagram Hashtag Feed App on Windows Store Application (C#). It works exactly like searching in instagram with a hashtag.

Hope the code can help. :)
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 :
https://www.instagram.com/developer/endpoints/users/#get_users_feed_liked
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
to view posts you've liked on the web.
