How do I add an Instagram listening search?
Updated over 11 months ago

Head over to Profile settings at the top and choose Listening on the left.

To add a new #hashtag search:

  • Press the Create search button

  • Type in the name you want to call the search and also the hashtag you wish to listen for

  • Click Create this search button

Please note: You can enter one hashtag per search

Limitations:

  • You can query a maximum of 30 unique hashtags within a rolling 7 day period. All hashtag searches across all third-party apps that you are using count towards this limit.

  • Instagram won't allow us to search far in the past - search query returns results published within 24 hours of search execution

  • Searches won't return promoted/boosted/ads media

  • Searches won't include any personally identifiable information such as name, Instagram handle or profile picture

To remove a search, click on the listening search and then on the Remove button.

Please note: Once you remove a search, you'll need to wait up to 7 days until it won't be counted towards the max limit of 30 hashtags.

To re-activate a search that has been previously removed, simply select the listening search under Other active searches

Note: You need to have an Admin role on the profile in Agorapulse to access the listening search settings. For more information on roles in your Agorapulse organisation, please refer to this article.
