I want to write a program that sends push notifications to my phone every time a certain thing is posted on instagram. Help getting started?

• NPushOver

  71 23 0.0 C#

• instaloader

  Download pictures (or videos) along with their captions and other metadata from Instagram.

  

I've done this before to check new Instagram stories. You should not need the official Instagram API to check new posts. I used https://instaloader.github.io/ before, and it's as easy as logging in with your account to get a session, then retrieving the post (it starts with the latest post so that's neat), comparing it's date or ID to the previous post, and then sending the notification to telegram with their bot API. For the image, you can use /sendphoto in the telegram bot API and set the caption to include additional information (instaloader after provides the post caption, so you can just use that).
