expose Instagram collaborator/co-author data via the Instagram connector#1955

Hi Windsor.ai team,

We use Windsor.ai to pull organic Instagram data for 47 connected business accounts (Strike Brasil’s network of franchise units), which feeds a live reporting dashboard we use to track each unit’s posting consistency.

We’d like to request that the Instagram connector expose collaborator/co-author data for media items, matching what’s available in Meta’s own Graph API — specifically the GET /{ig-media-id}/collaborators endpoint, which returns each collaborator’s id, username, and invite_status (accepted / pending / declined).

Two related things would help us:

A new field on the Instagram connector (e.g. media_collaborators) exposing that same data per post, so we can identify which posts are collabs and who they’re with.
Confirmation on current behavior: does the existing media data returned by the Instagram connector already include posts where a connected account participated as an invited collaborator (rather than as the original publisher)? If not, our per-unit post counts and “days since last post” metrics could be undercounting real activity whenever a unit posts via a collab initiated by another account.

Happy to share more context on our use case if useful. Thanks for considering this!

Best,

Feature request — expose the tags edge (posts where our account was tagged by others) for the Instagram connector

Hi Windsor.ai team,

Thanks again for adding media_collaborators to the Instagram connector — that’s already live and working well for us, letting us tell apart posts our own accounts publish with a collaborator from posts where our account is added as a collaborator by another account we also have connected.

There’s one gap left: that only works when the account that published the post is also one of our connected Windsor.ai accounts. We’d like to also detect when one of our accounts is tagged as a collaborator on a post published by an account we do not have connected (an external/partner page) — today we have no visibility into that at all.

We believe the Instagram Graph API’s tags edge (GET /{ig-user-id}/tags) is built for exactly this: it returns media where our account was photo-tagged by other accounts, regardless of who published it. We’d like to request:

A new field (or connector option) on the Instagram connector exposing this tags edge data per account — media ID, publishing account, timestamp, similar to what we get from the media fields today.
Clarification (or just ship it and let us test): does a post’s tags edge include an Instagram Collab co-author credit, or only the classic “tag a person/account in the photo” feature? We need to know whether this edge actually surfaces Collab invites from accounts outside our connected set, since that’s the specific case we’re trying to close.

Happy to test as soon as it’s available, same as last time. Thanks!

Best,
