Hi alexislunatic,

This account is restricted for users who are under 21 years old. Some of our accounts are below the age of 21.

Please try our another API https://rapidapi.com/mrngstar/api/instagram-api-20231 , you won’t face any issues there.

Thanks

Hi Mrngstar, I have tried again with the username(bizarro_bar) and the endpoint ‘Download HD story by Username’ and it gives me the error ‘Username is not valid,’ as you can see in the attached image. However, what’s most curious is that there are days when it does return the user. Please, I need your help.! ! https://ibb.co/QPdqG2t

Hi alexislunatic,

I thought you were talking about user info endpoint.
You can access age restricted profile stories using “Download HD story by Username” endpoint. There is no issue with the endpoint. Can you please try again.

Thanks

Hello Mrngstar,

Thank you for your response. Could the error message be updated to explicitly mention that the issue is due to age restrictions? This clarification would greatly assist users in understanding the access limitations immediately.

Thanks for considering this improvement.
