instagram.comDelete Instagram post
Delete one of your own Instagram posts or reels by shortcode. Opens the post, drives More options then Delete and the confirmation, and then reloads the post's link to prove it is really gone before reporting success. Returns the shortcode, the media id when Instagram exposes it, and whether the post was verified as removed. Fails clearly when the shortcode is not available to you (already deleted, private, or another account's) and when the post is still live after the confirmation.
instagram.comGet Instagram post comments
Fetch the preview comments of an Instagram post or reel by shortcode, plus its caption and counts. Returns code, url, caption, comments (text, user, verified, created_at, like_count, reply_count), like_count, view_count, comment_count, and comments_disabled. Only returns the comments Instagram renders by default, not the full thread, capped to count.
instagram.comSend Instagram DM
Send a DM to an Instagram user by their username: plain text, an image attachment, or both together. Takes the image as base64 so it runs from any client. Returns ids/timestamps for whichever parts were sent, and the recipient-side restriction banner if one is shown right after sending.
