Can this be used with Instagram?

[Zagoro]

Hello, all,

I only stream using IG, and I wonder if I can use this amazing tool to see viewers' messages while streaming. I checked the Social Stream website, and I only found this under the Supported Sites

instagram live (instagram.com/*/live/), css note: [data.type = "instagramlive"]

I do not know, however, where to add that. I hope anyone is using this in the way I intend, so I can get the help I am looking for.

Thanks, everyone, and thanks for creating this; what you guys have done is super cool.

Peace.

I support comments I think on instagram. You may need to enable it as an opt-in toggle if using the extension based version of SSN though

If its not working, let me know of course.

I am using the desktop app, I forgot to mention that, apologies. I don't see this opt-in section there, though.

Let me know what could be next in line to try. Thanks @steveseguin

The desktop version will automatically have it enabled I believe, however I've never tested it with the desktop app yet.

IVe not tested in about 3 months either, but last I tried it was all working.

generally, just loading an instagram page up in the app, posting to its URL in the app as an "add other source" option, it might work. You'll need to sign in first. Once you do load it up, you'll need to "view" the page in the app to make sure the comments are showing. you can try to navigate around to other pages and see if those comments loads.

You can also try using the extension instead, as it might be easier. In that case, just load the extension, and once you toggle on instagram support, just navigate around IG and see if it picks up any comments
