omg too many questions spring to mind.. let's start with this one:

On Instagram public metrics (likes and comments on business_discovery) and standard metrics with access permissions are organic, while public metrics in the app/browser are total (organic+paid). That already is hard to explain to customers. But to make it even worse, Facebooks public metrics are total. So this is an unsolvable mess when trying to have cross network metrics.

I see how this very specificly relates to the "different system" explanation, overlaying Instagram with the Facebook system. But it is so bad I still wonder that nobody has solved this.

Hello, could you give a basic introduction or something on how to use Graph API? I actually tried it but getting Error Messages. All i want is simply the API in order to create a Power BI Dashboard with the Performance of my Insta Account.
