API Integration for Instagram Feed
I'd like to log an enhancement request for the Tracking page editor. Currently the section where we add social media connectors is limited in connection options. Specifically for Instagram (which is a really cool feature) the only way to connect is using our own credentials (user name/password login). This is an unacceptable option as it exposes us to being hacked and is a security concern obviously. The better way to do this is via Instagram's API connection: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-platform.
Can you please log that as a high priority enhancement request? Should we decided to stay with AfterShip, this will be a critical branding requirement.
Hi Andrew!
Regarding your concern, we're currently using Instagram's OAuth workflow, username & password need to be entered directly on Instagram's page, so we cannot access it, and we only request the necessary read permissions, so it's super secure.
However, the idea of API connection sounds great! We'll definitely look into it!
What are your thoughts on this idea?
