Instagram Post Lookup (by Post ID)

omnial/instagram-fetch-post-by-id

Given an Instagram post's numeric ID, returns that post's caption, media dimensions and image variants, like/comment counts, ad/partnership disclosure flags, and the posting account's public username, display name, and verification/follower status. An invalid or nonexistent post ID returns an empty result rather than an error.
