I am trying to iterate over the user ID of each like for a given {media_id}
https://api.instagram.com/v1/media/{media-id}/likes?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN
is returning something like this (a data array of approx 300 likes)
{
"data": [{
"username": "jack",
"first_name": "Jack",
"last_name": "Dorsey",
"type": "user",
"id": "66"
},
{
"username": "sammyjack",
"first_name": "Sammy",
"last_name": "Jack",
"type": "user",
"id": "29648"
}]
}
The problem is that it does not return ALL the likes, or any pagination feature.
Is there any workaround to get ALL likes for a given {media_ID}?
You're using the correct API endpoint to get media likes, however this endpoint has a limitation. It only returns a maximum of 100-120 likes per media with no pagination.
Unfortunately there is no workaround!
The same limitation applies for the comments endpoint.
