Searching instagram posts from 2020
I know this has been asked before, but not very recently, and I'm hoping that there might be some new tools available. I have a PhD student who wants to search for posts using hashtags on Insta from a specific month in 2020. They don't have much technical expertise so if you have recommendations for something fairly simple to learn/use that would be really helpful! Thanks, Dr Sarah Kate Merry Coventry University
Hi, I'm actually looking for something similar. I have to collect some information from Instagram for my research and I can't find any tool to do it. if anyone knows about a tool that allows me to save for example all my saved posts on my computer would be really helpful. Many thanks! virginia El jue, 19 ene 2023 a las 18:55, Sarah Merry via Air-L (< air-l@listserv.aoir.org>) escribió:

Another option is 4kstogram: https://www.4kdownload.com/-ad0p9/stogram It's commercial software, but you can download images & stories according to hashtags and/or user accounts. You can also time-delimit your choice. From what I can tell, though, it *only* downloads the associated media—*not* accompanying text or commentary.

If you're comfortable with Python (or know someone who is), you can scrape Instagram's API using tools like Instaloader <https://python.plainenglish.io/scrape-everythings-from-instagram-using-python-39b5a8baf2e5>. I have also used Zapier <https://zapier.com/> in the past to create an automated workflow that placed new Instagram media with a particular tag in a Google Sheet. However, many of the Instagram functions in Zapier (and other tools like it) were deprecated in June 2020 when Instagram changed how its API works <https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2020/03/10/final-reminder-Instagram-legacy-api-platform-disabled-mar-31/> .
