Hi Guys!
I'm struggling with the Instagram API
I'm trying to get the followers of a instagram account. Sound simple Isn't it?
I'd try to do it by myself, creating an app .. getting a token, for scope=basic+public_content+follower_list
but when Im testing the url https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self … lower_list
I got that reply: {"pagination": {}, "meta": {"code": 200}, "data": []}
I think I understood that there is a Permissions Review issues
But I have to fill out a formular just to try to ask a permission
So my question is: Is are the simplest way to get the number of follower? Or Ihave to keep going on with this permisssion in order to get the follower list an count it!
Question bis: Have I any change to be allowed to have the "Permissions Review" granted?
Any help will be apreciate
Thx a lot Daftguy

Unfortunately Instagram locked down their API to a large degree. Very few Instagram API calls can be made with a Instagram Sandbox API key (mostly just getting the authenticated user's 20 latest posts) -- are you using approved production keys?

Thx for replying!
I have to decode both english an technicals stuffs ... so, I think i don't care about the limits of calling the latest posts, I just want to have the number of followers ... that's it! But about the "approved production keys" you mean those of "Permissions Review"? No ... (not yet) but I know it's not easy you have to produce samples, videos etc... I wonder if i had to do that! that the reason why I'm asking some help before

Unfortunately without production keys you can't access the number of followers and as you mentioned it's hard to put together a presentation for Instagram to approve without actually working in the API.

That ruining my expectations ... but that save me time! Thanks
