After authorizing the user and receiving an auth_token I am able to get the fields id, username, and account_type for the currently authorized user.

How do I also get the profile picture for the user?

  • It would be great if somebody knows also how to get the `bio`. – Gianfranco P. Oct 27 '19 at 20:00

    Those items can be scraped trivially from the users Instagram page but I am so far unaware of how to do this through the official api. This is very frustrating for us since we have a policy of only using official apis – Luke Pighetti Oct 27 '19 at 22:28

It's frustrating but right now, there is not a way to do it through the API officially. Maybe you can use an thirdy party package to do it scraping.
