Hello dear support, can you advise me on what I need to do in order to display my instagram bussines page feed using SCSocial Widget as it is not working I am getting warning that oEmbed does not support this type of integration. What do I need to change/add in order to display my instagram feed using your module?
Documentation is little bit outdated I think or I am reading it wrong.

Also I have not found where to generate Instagram id and app secret to insert it in app settings.

Thank you!

Your correct, the documentation is probably a little out of date.

For oEmbed, you need a Facebook application. In our documentation, we also mention you need the Instagram Basic API access, but that is incorrect now. We'll get that updated.

As for oEmbed, when you have the Facebook developer app and secret setup, you should be able to use the oEmbed widget.

However, please note that the oEmbed widget allows you to share 1 post at a time. When you configure it, you'll set a URL or ID to a specific Instagram item to show on your site. It cannot be used to show a feed of all of your posts. Instagram does not have an API to allow pulling your feed and displaying it. We do support feeds for Facebook Pages, Twitter Streams and LinkedIn Company Feeds.

I hope that helps explain, but if you have any other questions, just let me know.

Alex
