I know how to download image from instagram with specific hashtags. I do below to download images from instagram
string[] splittedHashTags = hashtags.Split(',');
foreach (string tag in splittedHashTags)
{
do
{
WebRequest webRequest = null;
if (webRequest == null && string.IsNullOrEmpty(nextPageUrl))
webRequest = HttpWebRequest.Create(String.Format("https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/{0}/media/recent?access_token={1}", tag, strAccessToken));
else
webRequest = HttpWebRequest.Create(nextPageUrl);
var responseStream = webRequest.GetResponse().GetResponseStream();
Encoding encode = System.Text.Encoding.Default;
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(responseStream, encode))
{
JToken token = JObject.Parse(reader.ReadToEnd());
var pagination = token.SelectToken("pagination");
if (pagination != null && pagination.SelectToken("next_url") != null)
{
nextPageUrl = pagination.SelectToken("next_url").ToString();
}
else
{
nextPageUrl = null;
}
var images = token.SelectToken("data").ToArray();
foreach (var image in images)
{
imageUrl = image.SelectToken("images").SelectToken("standard_resolution").SelectToken("url").ToString();
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(imageUrl))
Console.WriteLine("broken image URL");
co
var imageId = image.SelectToken("id");
double imageCreatedTime = image.SelectToken("created_time").Value<double>();
DateTime dtImgCreatedTime = UnixTimeStampToDateTime(imageCreatedTime);
var webClient = new WebClient();
byte[] imageBytes = webClient.DownloadData(imageUrl);
SPSite site = new SPSite(microSiteUrl);
}
}
}
}
while (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(nextPageUrl));
}
But i would like to know how can i search images in instagram if they exist or not by providing imageid?
