Instagram embed box not loading embed code... anyone know a workaround?

2.1k views Asked by At

I am trying to copy the embed code from a single Instagram reel by clicking the ... menu and clicking Embed. However, the code never loads and I get this screen. Anyone know a workaround to embed an Instagram reel on a website? The specific reel is: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cd56By5FxBF/

See screenshot for what loads when I try to use to embed function on instagram. I have tried on multiple browsers.

where the embed should be... but it never loads

Thanks

The integration code is made up of two elements. A long <blockquote> followed by a short <script>.

The <script> element should look something like this:

<script async src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script>

Just add https: to the value of the src attribute, thus:

<script async src="https://www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script>

And everything should be working fine.
