Sorry I was not sure exactly where to post this but figured might as well do it here. It would be great if you guys could also include instagram login at some point in the cb connect plugin. Thank you for all work you guys put in for the component and plugins by the way.

Regards,

Sorry, nope. Their API does not provide an authentication dialog. I do not implement redirect solutions. For me to consider the social site they need to have a JS API that can be prepared and an authentication dialog that they render.

Their API works like this: Redirect to Instagram > Login > Authorize Application > Redirect back to site. It's a clunky usage that fails too often to be relied on (initial release of CB Connect was redirect based, too many problems).

Instagrams last JS API was updated 2 years ago and all other solutions are user provided (this is too data sensitive for me to use user solutions; it must be provided by the social site). So unfortunately there's nothing that I can do, sorry. If they add a JS library with authentication dialog support in the future don't hesitate to let me know and will take a look.
