Instagram Reels, videos and photos Open API Integration Guide

Use the TapSave Open API to parse a public Instagram Reels, videos and photos link and handle the returned media resources in your application.

Integration flow

Send a POST request to https://api.videotool.cc/openapi/parse with Content-Type: application/json, an X-API-Key header, and a JSON body containing the public url.

Response handling

First check code === 200, data.resultCode === 0, and data.hasResource === true. Then consume only the resource arrays returned for that request; do not invent URLs or assume a fixed format.

Instagram Reels, videos and photos resources

For Instagram, Reels, videos, and carousel photos can appear separately; iterate videoList and imgList independently.

Limits and security

Keep the API key on your server, never expose it in browser code, and treat private, deleted, restricted, or unavailable links as expected parse failures.
