FAQ

1. Can I access the contents of a private profile? No, you cannot get information on private profiles. You can only get information from a public profile or a profile you follow. The tools that claim to be successful are scams!
2. What is and how I can bypass the challenge_required error? The challenge_required error means that Instagram notice a suspicious behavior on your profile, so needs to check if you are a real person or a bot. To avoid this you should follow the suggested link and complete the required operation (insert a code, confirm email, etc)

Installation ⚙️

1. Fork/Clone/Download this repo

   git clone https://github.com/Datalux/Osintgram.git

2. Navigate to the directory

   cd Osintgram

3. Create a virtual environment for this project

   python3 -m venv venv

4. Load the virtual environment

   • On Windows Powershell: .\venv\Scripts\activate.ps1
   • On Linux and Git Bash: source venv/bin/activate

5. Run pip install -r requirements.txt

6. Open the credentials.ini file in the config folder and write your Instagram account username and password in the corresponding fields

   Alternatively, you can run the make setup command to populate this file for you.

7. Run the main.py script in one of two ways

   • As an interactive prompt python3 main.py <target username>
   • Or execute your command straight away python3 main.py <target username> --command <command>

Use Osintgram v2 (beta)

You can use Osintgram2 beta just switching to v2 branch. The v2 has some improvements and is faster with a new command execution interface. Try it just running git checkout v2.

Docker Quick Start 🐳

This section will explain how you can quickly use this image with Docker or Docker-compose.

Prerequisites

Before you can use either Docker or Docker-compose, please ensure you do have the following prerequisites met.

1. Docker installed - link
2. Docker-composed installed (if using Docker-compose) - link
3. Credentials configured - This can be done manually or by running the make setup command from the root of this repo

Important: Your container will fail if you do not do step #3 and configure your credentials

Docker

If docker is installed you can build an image and run this as a container.

Build:

docker build -t osintgram .

Run:

docker run --rm -it -v "$PWD/output:/home/osintgram/output" osintgram <target>

• The <target> is the Instagram account you wish to use as your target for recon.
• The required -i flag enables an interactive terminal to use commands within the container. docs
• The required -v flag mounts a volume between your local filesystem and the container to save to the ./output/ folder. docs
• The optional --rm flag removes the container filesystem on completion to prevent cruft build-up. docs
• The optional -t flag allocates a pseudo-TTY which allows colored output. docs

Using docker-compose

You can use the docker-compose.yml file this single command:

docker-compose run osintgram <target>

Where target is the Instagram target for recon.

Alternatively, you may run docker-compose with the Makefile:

make run - Builds and Runs with compose. Prompts for a target before running.

Makefile (easy mode)

For ease of use with Docker-compose, a Makefile has been provided.

Here is a sample work flow to spin up a container and run osintgram with just two commands!

1. make setup - Sets up your Instagram credentials
2. make run - Builds and Runs a osintgram container and prompts for a target

Sample workflow for development:

1. make setup - Sets up your Instagram credentials
2. make build-run-testing - Builds an Runs a container without invoking the main.py script. Useful for an it Docker session for development
3. make cleanup-testing - Cleans up the testing container created from build-run-testing

Development version 💻

To use the development version with the latest feature and fixes just switch to development branch using Git:

git checkout development

and update to last version using:

git pull origin development

Updating ⬇️

To update Osintgram with the stable release just pull the latest commit using Git.

1. Make sure you are in the master branch running: git checkout master
2. Download the latest version: git pull origin master

[FEATURE] Automatically send follow requests to private accounts.

First, I would like to say this is a great tool, for capturing instagram information. But I think that it is limited only to users having a public profile. For users having a private profile, it would be great if we could send a request to follow from the terminal app itself, instead of logging on instagram.

readline installation error

I'm trying to install it on windows 8.1 Pro and it displays this error text.

I actually don't understand this but I dont think it's a normal error. I ignored it and carried on with the installation process, tried to run the osint anyways but when I try to run the main.py script, it returns me this other error
.
I don't really know what to do, so I'm expecting someone to tell me what should I do.
Thanks a lot.

Tagged command

Have you noticed that the tagged command doesn't return the correct number of times that a user was tagged?
Indeed it just checks at the 18 newest post that has the parameter "next_max_id" or something like that...

On the case that i've tested when i checked manually at the 18 newest post there were:
12 post that has tagged users;
4 different tagged users
one of the user were tagged 12 times
the other 3 users were tagged 1 time each

The Osintgram detected the following result:
1 user tagged twice (it detected only the user that has been tagged 12 times)

I think that the getPeopleTaggedByUser isn't detecting the correct amount of posts (18)... maybe when selecting only post that has the max_id param...

TypeError: the JSON object must be str, not 'bytes'

And the JSON file in config folder appears written with a 1 line containing ids, uuids, and so on.

Don't know why the tool is not working. I have followed and done every step.

If it helps, I wrote my username without any @ or "", I mean Plain text and the same with my password (my account is private) and I'm trying to run the next command:

python3 main.py acdc

:D have a good day.

Error response in html that cannot be decoded

After executing the tool on one of my account it failed with a traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 107, in <module> api = Osintgram(args.id, args.file, args.json) File "/home/devlinux/Osintgram/src/Osintgram.py", line 36, in __init__ self.setTarget(target) File "/home/devlinux/Osintgram/src/Osintgram.py", line 42, in setTarget user = self.get_user(target) File "/home/devlinux/Osintgram/src/Osintgram.py", line 956, in get_user data = content.json() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/requests/models.py", line 898, in json return complexjson.loads(self.text, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/simplejson/__init__.py", line 525, in loads return _default_decoder.decode(s) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/simplejson/decoder.py", line 370, in decode obj, end = self.raw_decode(s) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/simplejson/decoder.py", line 400, in raw_decode return self.scan_once(s, idx=_w(s, idx).end()) simplejson.errors.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

The response was actually html and looked like an error it's very long but here is a snippet from the very bottom when I outputted the content.text to my terminal:

` window.addEventListener('load', function(){
if (window.__bufferedErrors && window.__bufferedErrors.length) {
if (window.caches && window.caches.keys && window.caches.delete) {
window.caches.keys().then(function(keys) {
keys.forEach(function(key) {
window.caches.delete(key)
})
})
}
window.__bufferedErrors.map(function(error) {
return normalizeError(error)
}).forEach(function(normalizedError) {
var request = new XMLHttpRequest();
request.open('POST', '/client_error/', true);
request.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json; charset=utf-8');
request.send(JSON.stringify(normalizedError));
})
}
})
}());
</script>

I am running Python3.8 on Kali-Linux let me know if you need any more details

in pw.conf (only thing i wrote there was the usernames password)
the settings.json (the only thing i wrote was them weird parentheisis) () but wavy anyways) mybe i was suposed to write more there, if yes write it for me to make a copy and paste please.

and to finish, i never was able to exxecute the last step witch was like pip3 ... main.py (i didnt understood what to write after) i wrote directy the email like that (...main.py [email protected]) and wrote it like that without any email or conection. ...main.py and still didnt worked. please help me.

Error Installing

Hello. Im trying to run the app but when I try to run main.py I get this error text.

I think is related with pip3 and nominatim, but I don't know how to fix it (im just starting to learn about linux sorry)
