Failed to fetch user profile

See original GitHub issue

this._oauth2.get('https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self', accessToken, function (err, body, res) {
if (err) { return done(new InternalOAuthError('failed to fetch user profile', err));

Getting this error from last 2 days, is it instagram end issue?

the url is not valid anymore… plus it doesnt return so much data now…

i corrected it with :

this._oauth2.get('https://graph.instagram.com/me?fields=id,username', accessToken, function (err, body, res) {
    
    if (err) { return done(new InternalOAuthError('failed to fetch user profile', err)); }
    
    try {
      var json = JSON.parse(body);
      
      var profile = { provider: 'instagram' };
      profile.id = json.id;
      profile.username = json.username;
     
      profile._raw = body;
      profile._json = json;
      
      done(null, profile);
    } catch(e) {
      done(e);
    }
  });
