Is it possible to like a post through Instagram's new Graph API?
It looks like the old Instagram API has been depreciated, along with the liking endpoints. Is this functionality just not supported anymore?
Based on the documentation for the node media, there's no way to like a post anymore.
The only interaction possible is posting a comment

The graph document already have a createLink api to create an sharing link with
POST /me/drive/items/{item-id}/createLink with the scope 'organisation' or 'anonymous'
But i want to use the Graph API to share an item to specific user.
Anyone know how to solve this.
Many thanks
Please use the invite API for that - see https://graph.microsoft.io/en-us/docs/api-reference/v1.0/api/item_invite
I need to retrieve all facebook friends which match some sort of filter or pattern. I am currently calling this:
me/friends?fields=name,id
This returns all friends which have also downloaded my app. However, is there a way to filter the returned friends by name? I want to avoid retrieving all friends and then filtering the results on the client side to minimise the size of the result since there could be a lot of results. I know that FQL supported this, but it has been deprecated in favour of the graph API, however despite looking around everywhere I am surprised to not have found an answer to what I thought would be a pretty common requirement.
To give a bit of context, I'm simply providing the user with a text field with which they can filter their friends, and so want to make requests on the graph API like this:
me/friends?fields=name,id&name=%Pat%
Thanks
Facebook SDK gives you the option to retrieve either the friends that use the application or the one who haven't downloaded it yet (for invitation purposes etc.)
However, if you would like to filter them you will have to do it in the FE. Facebook SDK doesn't support such functionality yet.

I understand you can get the specific url of a tweet using the Twitter API by creating a url like this
https://twitter.com/username/status/tweet-id
However, is it possible to get an image of a tweet?
I can get media images, but those are just images that people posted in the tweet. I want to know if it is possible to get an image of the tweet itself.
Twitter's API includes the ability to do this with oembed.
https://dev.twitter.com/rest/reference/get/statuses/oembed
See https://opensourcelibs.com/lib/tweets-as-an-image
This project provides an API for downloading tweets as images: https://tweets-as-an-image.herokuapp.com/tweet?twitterHandle={your_twitter_handle}&id={your_tweet_id}&theme={light_or_dark}&maxwidth={max_width_of_your_tweet_image}&height={height_of_the_image}&lang={language}
Fast forward to 2023 - none of the one above seems to be available anymore.
This library worked flawlessly for me. It is not an web API but works well and has good options:
https://github.com/Xacnio/tweetcapture
You can now get images or screenshots of tweets using the #aissistant handle on twitter.
Retweet any tweet with the comment "#aissistant #image" to get an image.
Retweet any tweet with the comment "#aissistant #screenshot" to get a screenshot.
For other options like converting to memes and jokes check out the handle.
Full disclosure: I am creator of the bot behind the handle.
Is there any YouTube API which enables external applications to search for keyword/brand name across all video comments on YouTube and send it back to some URL? Also, pull method is fine if the proposed push idea does not exist.
So I would like to know if my brand was mentioned in any video comment on YouTube, similar as what Twitter allows with User/Site Streams.
The YouTube API (v2.0) defines comments as a property of the video object. Details on this relationship here:
https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/developers_guide_protocol_comments?hl=en#Retrieve_comments
Therefore, in order to search every YouTube comment you would need to traverse the entire collection of videos. If you're going to attempt something like this, it makes sense to validate your concept by first focusing on the feeds or categories that are most relevant to your brand. Details on feed and categories here:
https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/developers_guide_protocol_video_feeds
https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/developers_guide_protocol_category_keyword_browsing
No, there isn't anything like this available from the existing youtube api (neither V2 nor V3)
I found this post on SO as well as some other links on the web but they all seem outdated and seem to indicate that FB has not yet exposed this through the Open Graph API and i couldnt find anything to the contrary on the web. I am trying to find a way to post an image to a users wall and be able to tag multiple users in the post title or caption?
Is there still no way to do this through the api or somehow achieve the same result?
Tagging user/page in photo caption
This is not possible through the Graph API, and as far as I know the old #[user_id:0:link_text] is currently unavailable. Sadly I'm going to say that it is not possible at the time of writing this post.
I'll update this post with relevant info if I come across any.
Tagging user/page in Photo
This is possible through the Graph API.
The documentation for how to accomplish what you are looking for is located under the headline "tags" if you follow the link below:
