DEVELOPER FAQ

Questions about Instagram Story Downloader API

Does the Instagram Story API work with expired Stories?

Can it access private Instagram Stories?

No. Only supported publicly accessible Story URLs are accepted. The service does not authenticate as a viewer or bypass privacy controls.
