Hi, I have started to use tap-instagram and was wondering if anybody knows why this comes up when I run the test as shown on the https://hub.meltano.com/extractors/tap-instagram page. I used the same access token twice for the 'metrics-log-level' because I don't know where to get that and was wondering if anybody could point me in the right direction here?

Plugin configuration is invalid
JSONSchema was: {'type': 'object', 'properties': {'access_token': {'type': ['string'], 'description': 'A user access token'}, 'ig_user_ids': {'type': 'array', 'items': {'type': ['integer']}, 'description': 'User IDs of the Instagram accounts to replicate'}, 'media_insights_lookback_days': {'type': ['integer', 'null'], 'default': 60, 'description': 'The tap fetches media insights for Media objects posted in the last `insights_lookback_days` days - defaults to 14 days if not provided'}, 'start_date': {'type': ['string', 'null'], 'format': 'date-time', 'description': 'The earliest record date to sync'}, 'metrics_log_level': {'type': ['string', 'null'], 'description': 'A user access token'}, 'stream_maps': {'type': ['object', 'null'], 'properties': {}, 'description': 'Config object for stream maps capability.'}, 'stream_map_config': {'type': ['object', 'null'], 'properties': {}, 'description': 'User-defined config values to be used within map expressions.'}, 'flattening_enabled': {'type': ['boolean', 'null'], 'description': "'True' to enable schema flattening and automatically expand nested properties."}, 'flattening_max_depth': {'type': ['integer', 'null'], 'description': 'The max depth to flatten schemas.'}}, 'required': ['access_token', 'ig_user_ids']}

Have you configured

access_token

and

ig_user_ids

?

Yes, I used the access token from the graph api explorer on developers.facebook and stored ig_user_ids as my instagram username in an array like

['username']

What do you see if you run

meltano config tap-instagram list

?

hidden the key and the username for obvious reasons but this is what shows up

1. I think the description of

metrics_log_level

is misleading, so you shouldn't be setting it to the access token: https://github.com/voxmedia/tap-instagram/pull/20 2.

ig_user_ids

should be a list of integers so you probably need to double-check that

ah ye that makes sense, I assumed it wasn't the access token but tried anyways. Do you know what I should have that set to? As for the ig_user_ids, I thought this was just the username of the account I want to pull data from. Do you know how I can get the id?

README is misleading for

ig_user_ids

(says list of strings), but does contain some info on how to get them: https://github.com/voxmedia/tap-instagram?tab=readme-ov-file#configuration As Edgar said, you will see that config validation failure if the array items are not integers (as per tap.py), which you could verify by passing

[123]

as a test.

Do you know what I should have that set to?

Rather it's ok not to set it

Ah brilliant I got past the error. Of course a new error has shown up but it being unrelated I'll post a message away from this thread about it tomorrow. Thank you both for your help!
