instagram scraping

I had this google chrome addon, I can't for the life of me remember what it was called.

It was somewhat manual, you had to navigate to the page of the user and then you could click a 'download all' button and it would parse the html and download everything for you.

Maybe you could find it? Sounds like something you're after.

Its mostly that but I was hoping to get the entire profile with all the media and metadata stuff. Sadly they are quick to terminate accounts...

Ahhh shame that. My best bet would be to get some sort of plugin for your browser that allows you to download insta content, there's plenty knocking about

That's actually a better approach to not get suspended. But if you know any of any api then let me know

Give this a whirl my friend

I find browser plugins are best suited for getting the posts but thanks for suggesting this!

Thanks for the suggestion but I was already sending limited requests. For testing, I tried to use it without any middleman service and it seems they block all types of connections. No idea what kind of security they have in place but they block pretty much everything, especially after Facebook's blunder

Are some good services. Hmu if you need some free truesocks proxies.

Also,
maybe its worth a try to scrape some third party sites instead of ig itself?

Thanks a lot for your suggestions. I'd look into those. I have tried to use a few of these but they can't be automated easily since they require recaptcha. But some of them don't have it so I will be using those in the future but for now, using plugins is the best solution
