We're trying to fetch metrics for age-gated posts and so far it's a hit or miss one. We cannot understand why we're getting them for some posts and not for others (when both would be properly age-gated and would have same permission set). Any idea why?

What kind of metrics are you pull? Some pointers to developers.facebook.com would help

Ah, we're trying to get IG Media Insights from age-gated posts (ex. engagement from an age-gated photo). My theory is for age-gated posts, which would apply for example on posts with alcohol, they go through paid partnership setting with audience restrictions. The post's metrics won't be organic then so we're not able to fetch any from the IG Media Insights endpoint. Is that right or are we missing some permission?

By paid partnership do you mean ads or Branded Content? They're very different when it comes to API offerings. Ads stuff usually goes through separate set of APIs (aka Marketing API). Branded Content is treated similarly as organic.

In the failure case, you can access the base /media_id endpoint no problems right? And do the failure and success case's medias belong to the same user?
