Redirected to instagram login page

[Zzombiee2361]

When getting instagram url, it gets redirected to the login page (https://www.instagram.com/accounts/login/) thus resulting in invalid url when getting oembed endoints. I already set the instagram:token setting, and directly calling oembed endpoint with said token works fine.

I'm seeing this too. it happens on the demo http://oscarotero.com/embed/demo even when providing a valid access token in the url

@lozeone @Zzombiee2361 Can you try with this PR #424 ?

[Zzombiee2361]

@RiverVanRain I see that PR is for v3.x but I'm currently using v4.x so I can't test that. Although weirdly I no longer able to reproduce this issue anymore. But I'll let this issue open since I can still reproduce the issue on the demo page like @lozeone said.

I'm also seeing this too. Did anyone manage to get it working?

Hi,

This is happening to me but only on my staging / production environment (AWS servers). On my local server it reads the page without any problems.

How did you solve this?

(by the way, the instagram url I'm trying is from a public post)

Thanks

How did you solve this?

That's the neat part, I don't.

Like you said, the issue doesn't exists on local but very much exists on actual hosted server.

I work around this issue by checking if the url host is facebook or instagram, if it is, then use facebook's official oEmbed. You can check using parse_url($url) if host ends with instagram.com or facebook.com
