Instagram Photo no found
I use content from instagram to publish in my other social media account automatically by using RSSBOX and IFTTT. but it seems doesn't work anymore. help me!
Hi there,
When you load your user in RSSBox, does it still show the RSS contents, or an error? Can you share your instagram handle?
I am not an expert in how IFTTT works, but does it show any kind of error message?
Thanks!
Tweets are sent, but not photo was uploaded.

Hmm.. so the RSS feed encodes ampersands because that's how Atom feeds should encode them, and I think it does it properly. Maybe you can try to contact IFTTT and ask them if they are reading the RSS feed properly? I think they should expect & to be in there and decode html entities.
Feel free to link them this issue thread and they can tell me that I'm wrong. :)
Hi stefansundin & eyoungmin,
Yes, I've the same problem. The IFTTT applet for RSS to Twitter (with native photo) no longer works. As discovered, the problem is the &.
Let me know me know if you have any luck with IFTTT.
RSSBox is great BTW. Thanks Stefan.

Any news on this? Still doesn't work for me.

No, I haven't received an answer yet. There is the same problem with similar RSS services. RSS-Bridge They haven't solved it, but there's a temporary solution. Many people have to keep talking about IFTTT.
I think this is a referer problem, not an issue with the img src url.
If I right click and load image in new tab (in Firefox) it loads fine. Checking the web tools network console for my RSS reader shows that the instagram images are returning a 200 code but only about 400 bytes. I've been doing some experiments with just creating an html page and putting the link in there with or without the & and I get the same result: a broken image.
I noticed that linkin.bio for artsy (https://linkin.bio/artsy) seems to be showing instagram thumbnails. But the code is difficult to understand. I am hopeful there is a parameter that can be added to the image url to allow at least a thumbnail, but still searching...
