Platform API endpoint

https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/api/instagram/stories-full

Authorization header

Authorization: Bearer $SANDBASE_API_KEY

# The quoted heredoc keeps Unicode and shell metacharacters unchanged.
result=$(curl --fail-with-body --silent \
  -X POST "https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/api/instagram/stories-full" \

printf '%s\n' "$result"

2. Authentication

Set your SandBase API key in your server environment. Requests use Bearer authentication.

API key environment variable

export SANDBASE_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Keep your key on the server. Do not expose it in browser code.

3. Parameters

`username`stringrequired

Instagram username or handle without the @.

`requireFields`array

Optional; omit it and routing is unchanged, with the cheapest source serving. Name the output fields this request must be able to return, for example `soundTitle`, and it is served only by a source that returns every one of them. Fields you do not name are still returned whenever the serving source has them. This can raise your price: when the cheapest source cannot return a named field, a dearer source serves, and you are quoted and charged its price. A named field can still be absent on a story that genuinely lacks it. Naming a combination that no single source returns together is refused as invalid input, with no charge.
