amp-instagram

Experimental
Bento

Description

Displays an Instagram embed.

 

Required Scripts

<script async custom-element="amp-instagram" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-instagram-1.0.js"></script>

Behavior

The width and height attributes are special for the Instagram embed. These should be the actual width and height of the Instagram image. The system automatically adds space for the "chrome" that Instagram adds around the image.

Many Instagrams are square. When you set layout="responsive" any value where width and height are the same will work.

Example:

<amp-instagram
  data-shortcode="fBwFP"
  data-captioned
  width="400"
  height="400"
  layout="responsive"
>
</amp-instagram>

If the Instagram is not square you will need to enter the actual dimensions of the image.

When using non-responsive layout you will need to account for the extra space added for the "instagram chrome" around the image. This is currently 48px above and below the image and 8px on the sides.

Standalone use outside valid AMP documents

Bento allows you to use AMP components in non-AMP pages without needing to commit to fully valid AMP. You can take these components and place them in implementations with frameworks and CMSs that don't support AMP. Read more in our guide Use AMP components in non-AMP pages.

To find the standalone version of amp-instagram, see bento-instagram.

Attributes

data-shortcode The instagram data-shortcode is found in every instagram photo URL.
For example, in https://instagram.com/p/fBwFP, fBwFP is the data-shortcode.
data-captioned Include the Instagram caption. amp-instagram will attempt to resize to the correct height including the caption.
common attributes This element includes common attributes extended to AMP components.
