Until 2016, it was possible to develop apps that could mine Instagram information for analysis; a masters student of mine built her thesis around information processed through a custom-built tool. Then Instagram closed access, and apparently only commercial use is allowed, and through a difficult process.

I'd like to know if there have been any changes to that situation, or to Instagram policy, and whether any fellow researcher has been able to access Instagram data for academic research.
