About Instagram Stories and how to get them ?

Stories are only available in the Instagram Insights API for 24 hours, so capturing this data quickly is essential if you want to access it later. To preserve Story data beyond the 24-hour limit, you can store it as historical data using Catchr for Google Sheets, BigQuery, or any database.

Set up a daily request to fetch Story data, and you can filter by Media Product Type = STORY to retrieve only Stories. All standard Instagram metrics will be available for your Stories, along with four Story-specific metrics:
Story Replies
Story Exits
Story Taps Forwards
Story Taps Back

Please note that Instagram Insights won’t return data for Stories with fewer than 5 views.
