The Instagram plugin lets users import photos from their Instagram account.

A [Companion](https://uppy.io/docs/companion) instance is required for the Instagram plugin to work. Companion handles authentication with Instagram, downloads the pictures and videos, and uploads them to the destination. This saves the user bandwidth, especially helpful if they are on a mobile connection.

Uppy is being developed by the folks at [Transloadit](https://transloadit.com), a versatile file encoding service.

## Example

```js
const Uppy = require('@uppy/core')
const Instagram = require('@uppy/instagram')

const uppy = Uppy()
uppy.use(Instagram, {
})
```

## Installation

```bash
$ npm install @uppy/instagram --save
```

We recommend installing from npm and then using a module bundler such as [Webpack](https://webpack.js.org/), [Browserify](http://browserify.org/) or [Rollup.js](http://rollupjs.org/).

Alternatively, you can also use this plugin in a pre-built bundle from Transloadit's CDN: Edgly. In that case `Uppy` will attach itself to the global `window.Uppy` object. See the [main Uppy documentation](https://uppy.io/docs/#Installation) for instructions.
