Error: The date range is too wide, the API does not support it.
The Instagram API only returns data for a 2 years date range.
For example, if today is September 1st, 2024, you can only retrieve data going back to September 2nd, 2022.
If you want to maintain data history and request for more than two years, you need to start storing it now using a database (such as Google Sheets, BigQuery, MySQL, etc.).
You can use the Catchr add-on for Google Sheets or our database services at app.catchr.io (refer to the help desk for specific databases. If they are not listed, please contact us via chat).
The process is always the same: create a query with a date dimension (for posts, use the "Media created at" field) and set up automatic updates to import new data at a scheduled interval.
