Hey everyone,

I’m working on an app that allows users to share content directly to their Instagram Stories. I’ve got most of the functionality working — the app can pre-populate the story with text and images. However, I’m stuck on automatically adding a link to the story.

I’ve looked at the Instagram API documentation, but it’s incredibly confusing, and the sections that seem relevant are always marked as “deprecated.” I know this is possible, as apps like NGL do it. If you’ve ever used NGL, you’ll see that when you share to your story, it automatically includes your NGL link.

Has anyone successfully implemented this functionality using the Instagram API? Any guidance, code examples, or workarounds would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
