Wont get all images about instagramosint HOT 15 CLOSED

@Aspiringpentester is there any error message showing up ?

from instagramosint.

No

I just now used another post scraping tool, and this time it downloaded 12 posts, but still not all 70. I think this is a thing wrong with Instagram, but if anyone has a solution I'd like to hear it.

@Aspiringpentester I'll check it when I'm back home ,but did you try to change the user agent in the tool ?

from instagramosint.

To be honest, I'm really a programmer, just interested in code. I don't really know what you mean by user agent. I'll look in the code, but I probably won't find it.

@Aspiringpentester no problem , I'll check it and update you :)

@Aspiringpentester
ok ,so I was testing it ,and apparently if you open any profile on the web version on Instagram,it will only show the last 16 posts ,it won't show you more even if you scroll down.

this will limit the program to show maximum 16 images.

you can confirm that by going to that person's profile on the browser without logging in,and you should see the 14 images and two videos(probably igtv).

to show more images ,we need to imitate a click on "show more posts from xxxxxx",then get the maxim number of images allowed by insta.

I'll probably try to do that next weekend in case I have free time.

@Aspiringpentester Hi , apologies for being veryyyyy late , i had few things working on , anyway ,i've checked the code and sadly it can not be modified to get the images dynamically as it's using very simple fetching technique instead of using headless browser and interacting with the page , but there sure is another programs on github that can achieve that , i didn't research on them tbh

@YnwaFawzy Ok. I guess I'll look into it then.

from instagramosint.

@Aspiringpentester did you end up finding a tool that did what you were looking for?

from instagramosint.

@chris-greening I actually haven't looked into it lol. I don't really have any interest in finding one tbh.
