R help - Sep 2018 - Instagram Analysis

Dear all,

I'm looking for an R package that allows me to analyze Instagram.
Specifically I would like to download for a given account the list of other
accounts that either this account follows or that follow this account (the
followers and following numbers).

I know there is instaR but this package is quite old (August 2016) and
seems not to have been updated in the meantime. Is there a new package or
any other way to get this information in an easy way?

Thanks,

Michael

Send a get request to
https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/{user-id}/follows?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN
and you'll get JSON back with (among other things) the accounts said
user follows. Hope that helps... Feel free to drop me a line off-list
should you need further help. -- H
