Questions about Instagram

Is there an official Instagram MCP server?

Yes. It is published by jojapi.com and served from mcp.jojapi.com, the vendor's own domain: https://mcp.jojapi.com/instagram.

How many tools does Instagram have?

22, as returned by the server's own tools/list on 31 August 2026: get_user_details_by_username, get_user_posts_by_username, get_user_stories_by_username, get_v2_location_posts, get_v2_post_details_by_shortcode, get_v2_search, get_v2_tag_posts, get_v2_user_details_by_id, and 14 more.

Is Instagram down?

It answered our last check on 18 October 2026 in 105 ms. Over 10 checks since 5 September 2026 it answered 10.

How do I add Instagram to Cursor?

Put the server under mcpServers in ~/.cursor/mcp.json with the URL https://mcp.jojapi.com/instagram. The exact JSON is above, with the same setup for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, Gemini CLI and the rest.

Does Instagram need an API key?

It listed its tools to an anonymous client, so reading the tool list needs no key. Individual tools can still ask for credentials in their own inputs.

Where this comes from

Publisher: com.jojapi. Endpoint host: mcp.jojapi.com. ARD identifier: urn:air:com.jojapi:mcp:instagram. First indexed 31 August 2026. The tools are exactly what the server returned; nothing on this page is inferred from its name. Ranking in Neuronto search is never for sale.
