Instagram Helper Script
Instagram Scripts for various tasks automation
This JavaScript has helper methods to perform various tasks automation.
How to use?
- Install Chrome Browser
- Create an empty temporary folder somewhere.
- Download the file InstagramHelperChrome.vbs and double click on it.
- Select that temporary created folder.
- That will then generate a Chrome Shortcut on your selected path with name
InstagramHelperChrome
- Open that Special Chrome Browser using that shortcut. (Ignore the flag that says You are using an unsupported comman-line flag: βdisable-web-security. Stability and security will suffer) (This flag is shown because we will be mimicking the automation process of Sending Request to Instagram using Chrome).

β FAQ
π Getting errors displayed in console while running the code
- There might be some errors related to Instagram site, not every error displayed on console are from our script.
- If error persists and repeats everytime, then close browser logout and relogin and then try running the code.
π΅ Getting too often βTry again tomorrowβ Error or 429 Response Code?
- Try to close the browser re-open Instagram and logout then login.
- Try with more higher number of delay seconds.
β³ Why unsending is slow?
- Deleting messages is kept intentionally slow because Instagram has limit to delete number of messages in per second.
- If we delete fastly then Instagram servers detects it as bot and then unsending is not allowed with the session temporarily, until you logout and relogin. So to avoid getting detected, we have kept a delay in the code to delete messages with specific interval of time.
- It is very tedious and time consuming process, but efficient and better than doing it manually. One can simply open a new chrome browser window and follow the simple steps and minimise it.
π How to stop unsending process?
- Refresh the page or Close the browser or Restart the computer.
π How to see my downloaded messsages?
- Open the link InstagramHelperDataViewer to view the data.
