I’m going to show you how you can get an Instagram user ID and other profile information by entering an Instagram username. We will use the AccentAPI service.
Endpoint
This is the URL / API endpoint that you can use for your application. You just need to simply replace the username and private key with your own.
GET https://api.accentapi.com/v1/instagram-profile?username=oracle&private_key=YOUR_PRIVATE_KEYExample response
Parameters
username On the example URL above, we are using “oracle” as the username. You can change this to anything you want, depending on your project.
private_key You need to subscribe to our service to get your own private API key.
Pricing
Subscribe to our service for only $50/month. Pay using this link. Once payment is complete, within 24 hours, we will send the API access with 5,000 requests per month.
