API Integration for India Businesses
Live Instagram feeds, shopping tags and Facebook login, wired into your site.
The most requested piece is a live Instagram feed on the website -- pulling recent posts automatically instead of someone manually re-uploading photos every time they post. This requires the Instagram Graph API (not the old, now-retired Basic Display API), which means the account needs to be a Business or Creator account connected to a Facebook Page.
Facebook/Instagram login for a website and Instagram Shopping product tags come up next most often, both of which go through Meta's app review process if your usage goes beyond basic testing -- that review timeline is factored into the schedule up front rather than being a surprise later.
Everything needed to get this API live, tested and reliable
AUTO-UPDATING, NOT MANUAL
Recent posts pulled onto your website automatically via the Instagram Graph API.
ONE-CLICK SIGN-IN
Social login for your website or app using Meta's OAuth flow, including app review if required.
PRODUCT TAGS & CAMPAIGN DATA
Product catalog sync for Instagram Shopping tags, or Ads API data pulled into your own dashboard.
Both show Instagram posts on your site -- how they get there is where they differ
| Option | Best For | Worth Knowing |
|---|---|---|
| Instagram Graph API (direct) | Businesses that want full control over layout, caching and how posts are filtered/displayed | Needs a Business/Creator account and token refresh handling, but no recurring third-party subscription fee. |
| Third-party embed widget/plugin | A quick, no-maintenance feed with a fixed look | Often comes with a monthly fee once you exceed a free post limit, and less control over exactly how it's styled. |
| Manual screenshot/re-upload | Businesses posting rarely enough that automation isn't worth it | No integration needed at all, but someone has to remember to update it -- it usually goes stale within a few months. |
Issues seen often enough on real projects to plan around from day one
The Graph API flatly requires a Business or Creator account connected to a Facebook Page -- work started before confirming this leads to a rebuild, not a small fix.
Meta requires app review once real users (not just the developer) interact with login or a public feed -- skipping this and going live results in the feature getting shut off, not a warning first.
Long-lived Instagram/Facebook access tokens still expire (typically around 60 days) -- a feed or login that isn't set up to refresh the token quietly stops working a couple of months after launch.
Confirm the Instagram account is Business/Creator and connected to a Facebook Page, and identify exactly which permissions (feed, login, shopping) are needed.
A Meta developer app created with the right permissions, and submitted for app review if your usage requires it.
Feed widget, login flow or shopping tag sync built and connected to your website or app.
Verified live, with token expiry/refresh handling in place so it doesn't silently break in a couple of months.
