API** provides access to internal mobile app endpoints used by the official Instagram app. Unlike the public Graph API, it allows developers to automate actions such as following, liking, messaging, or posting content directly, simulating real app behavior.\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"instagram-private-api.png\" alt=\"instagram-private-api.png\" width=\"90%\"\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n### Key Benefits\n1. Full access to features beyond Graph API.  \n2. Mimics real mobile user behavior.  \n3. Enables automation and account control.  \n4. Supports reverse-engineering for research.  \n5. Flexible for both Python and Node.js stacks.  \n\n---\n\n## Features\n\n| Feature | Description |\n|----------|-------------|\n| Login simulation | Authenticate like a mobile user |\n| Media upload | Upload stories, reels, and posts |\n| Messaging | Send and receive direct messages |\n| Proxy routing | Use IP rotation for safety |\n| Device emulation | Mimic Android/iOS behavior |\n\n---\n\n## Use Cases\n- Automating Instagram posting workflows  \n- Managing DM campaigns  \n- Researching engagement patterns  \n- Reverse-engineering mobile API calls  \n- Building stealth marketing bots  \n\n---\n\n## FAQs\n\n**Q:** What is the Instagram Private API?  \n**A:** The Instagram Private API refers to the set of internal endpoints used by the mobile app. It allows developers to perform actions like posting, liking, following, and messaging directly from code by imitating official app requests.  \n\n**Q:** How does it differ from the official Instagram Graph API?  \n**A:** The Graph API is a public, rate-limited interface designed for business accounts, offering safe but restricted access. The Private API, on the other hand, is unofficial and provides full user-level control over the platform but risks account bans if abused.  \n\n**Q:** Is it officially supported by Instagram?  \n**A:** No. The Private API is **not officially supported** or documented by Instagram. It’s used for research, testing, and automation purposes and may break if Instagram changes its internal endpoints.  \n\n---\n\n## Results\n-----------------------------------  \n\u003e 5x wider access than Graph API  \n\u003e Enables complete automation control  \n\u003e Simulates authentic user sessions safely  \n\n## Performance Metrics\n-----------------------------------\nAverage Benchmarks:  \n- **Speed:** ~2x faster than Graph API  \n- **Stability:** 95% with correct headers  \n- **Ban Rate:** \u003c1% using proper delays  \n- **Throughput:** 100+ API actions/min  \n\n---\n\n## Do you have a customized project for us?\nContact Us\n\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"https://mail.google.com/mail/u/?authuser=ahmadzee26@gmail.com\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg alt=\"Gmail\" width=\"30px\" src=\"https://edent.github.io/SuperTinyIcons/images/svg/gmail.svg\" /\u003e\n    \u003ccode\u003esupport@appilot.app\u003c/code\u003e\n  \u003c/a\u003e\n  \u003cspan\u003e ┃ \u003c/span\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"https://t.me/devpilot1\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg alt=\"Telegram\" width=\"30px\" src=\"https://edent.github.io/SuperTinyIcons/images/svg/telegram.svg\" /\u003e\n    \u003ccode\u003epilot\u003c/code\u003e\n  \u003c/a\u003e\n  \u003cspan\u003e ┃ \u003c/span\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"https://discord.com\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg alt=\"Discord\" width=\"30px\" src=\"https://github.com/Zeeshanahmad4/RealEstateMate-WhatsApp-Group-Management-Bot/blob/main/discord-icon-svgrepo-com.svg\" /\u003e\n    \u003ccode\u003ezee#2655\u003c/code\u003e\n  \u003c/a\u003e\n  \u003cspan\u003e ┃ \u003c/span\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"https://wa.me/447723343390?text=Hi%20Zeeshan%2C%20I%27m%20interested%20in%20automation.\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg alt=\"WhatsApp\" width=\"30px\" src=\"https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/simple-icons@v11/icons/whatsapp.svg\" /\u003e\n    \u003ccode\u003ewhatsapp\u003c/code\u003e\n  \u003c/a\u003e\n  \u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\n---\n\n## Installation\n\n### Pre-requisites\n- Python 3.8+ or Node.js 18+  \n- Git  \n- Proxy (optional)  \n\n### Steps\n```bash\n# Clone the repo\ngit clone https://github.com/yourusername/instagram-private-api.git\ncd instagram-private-api\n\n# Install dependencies\nnpm install\n# or\npip install -r requirements.txt\n\n# Setup environment\ncp .env.example .env\n\n# Run\nnpm start\n# or\npython main.py\n```\n\n---\n\n## Example Output\n```bash\n✅ Logged in as @automation_test\n📸 Uploaded Story: automation.png\n💬 Sent DM to @target_user\n```\n\n---\n\n## License\nMIT License\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Finstagram-automations%2Finstagram-private-api","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Finstagram-automations%2Finstagram-private-api","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Finstagram-automations%2Finstagram-private-api/lists"}
