Excel Add-In for Instagram

Build 23.0.8868

AccountInsights

Allows you to get insights for an Instagram business account. Requires the instagram_basic and instagram_manage_insights scopes.

Select

You can query the following metrics given a date range. The default date range is the last 7 days.

  • Impressions (accepts time periods of day, week, and days_28)
  • Reach (accepts time periods of day, week, and days_28)
  • FollowerCount (only accepts the day period)
  • EmailContacts (only accepts the day period)
  • PhoneCallClicks (only accepts the day period)
  • TextMessageClicks (only accepts the day period)
  • GetDirectionsClicks (only accepts the day period)
  • WebsiteClicks (only accepts the day period)
  • ProfileViews (only accepts the day period)

Specify a date range with the FromDateTime and ToDateTime columns. Specify the intervals of the date range by setting the Period column in the WHERE clause. Note that you cannot use a period on a metric that does not support it. For example, you cannot use Impressions AND FollowerCount with period days_28 because FollowerCount only supports the day period.

The add-in will use the Instagram APIs to process filters that refer to a date range or Id. The add-in processes other filters client-side within itself.

The following examples show how to retrieve metrics over a given date range:

  • The default query returns results for the following metrics during the last seven days: Impressions, Reach, FollowerCount, EmailContacts, PhoneCallClicks, TextMessageClicks, GetDirectionsClicks, WebsiteClicks, and ProfileViews.

    SELECT * FROM AccountInsights

  • Filter on FromDateTime and ToDateTime to explicitly specify a different date range. The max date range cannot be more than 30 days (2592000 s).

    SELECT * FROM AccountInsights WHERE FromDateTime = '2018/01/01' AND ToDateTime = '2018/01/30' AND period = 'day'

  • Return results over a period of 7 days.

    SELECT * FROM AccountInsights WHERE FromDateTime = '2018/01/01' AND period = 'day'

  • Return results from 2018/01/01 to 2018/01/08.

    SELECT * FROM AccountInsights WHERE ToDateTime = '2018/01/08' AND period = 'day'

  • Return a custom projection on account insights for the date range from 2018/01/01 to 2018/01/08.

    SELECT Impressions, FollowerCount, EmailContacts FROM AccountInsights WHERE FromDateTime = '2018/01/01' AND ToDateTime = '2018/01/30' AND period = 'day'
