Features not available through the Instagram API
Have you noticed that when using Sendible, certain features you may use on the Instagram site directly are not available to you? This is because Instagram has yet to make certain features available through their API, which is how third-party platforms like Sendible integrate with them.
No third-party service, including ours, can provide these features. Below is a list of the features the Instagram API currently does not support.
Instagram API does not include the following features
- Story Highlights
- Publishing to IGTV
- Filters
- Follow #hashtags
- Hide ad comments
- Responding to or removing an ad comment when the ad is no longer active or has been updated
- Adding alt-text to your images
- Adding captions to Stories
- Create collaborator posts
- Publish Stories using a Creator account
- Liking comments
- Data concerning swipe-up links in Stories
- Instagram Live
- Stories stickers, GIFs, Locations
- Stories "reposts"
Note: We're always keeping an eye out for any changes to the API and will definitely look to implement these features if they are available. If you want to let us know which of the features in this list you want to see added or if something is missing, please use our ideas portal to tell us what you think.
