Prerequisites

Before you start, you'll need:

1. A RapidAPI account: If you don’t have one, you can create it at RapidAPI.
2. The Instagram Downloader API key: You can subscribe to it here.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/farhaanaliii/InstaAPI.git

2. Navigate to the project folder:

   cd InstaAPI

3. Install required Python packages:

   pip install requests

Setup

1. Store your RapidAPI key securely:

   • Open the config.py file in the project.
   • Replace "your_rapidapi_key_here" with your actual RapidAPI key.

   RAPIDAPI_KEY = "your_rapidapi_key_here"  # Replace with your actual API key

2. Running the Test: After setting up the API key in config.py, run the main.py script:

   python main.py

   This will fetch the Instagram post's thumbnail and download link and display them in the terminal.

Example Usage

In main.py, you can change the post_url to any Instagram post URL you want to fetch data from. Here's the default example:

post_url = "https://www.instagram.com/coding.np/p/DCyqv53Sa8R/"

The script will fetch and display the thumbnail and download link.
