You can use the Instagram connector from the CData Sync application to capture data from Instagram and move it to any supported destination. To do so, you need to add the connector, authenticate to the connector, and complete your connection.

Add the Instagram Connector

To enable Sync to use data from Instagram, you first must add the connector, as follows:

1. Open the Connections page of the Sync dashboard.

2. Click Add Connection to open the Select Connectors page.

3. Click the Sources tab and locate the Instagram row.

4. Click the Configure Connection icon at the end of that row to open the New Connection page. If the Configure Connection icon is not available, click the Download Connector icon to install the Instagram connector. For more information about installing new connectors, see Connections.

Authenticate to Instagram

After you add the connector, you need to set the required properties.

On the New Connection page, enter the connection name of your choice.

Complete Your Connection

To complete your connection:

1. Specify the following properties:

   • Business Account Id (optional) - Enter the business-account identifier for your Instagram account.

   • Version (optional) - Enter the Facebook Graph API version that you want to use. The default version is 17.0.

2. Define advanced connection settings on the Advanced tab. (In most cases, though, you should not need these settings.)

3. Click Connect to Instagram to connect to your Instagram account.

4. Click Create & Test to create your connection.
