"onlyPostsNewerThan" input parameter does not apply to pinned posts
Closed
The "onlyPostsNewerThan" input parameter does not apply to pinned posts. Steps to reproduce:
- Find an instagram profile with at least one pinned post
- Add their username to the "username" input parameter
- Set the "onlyPostsNewerThan" input to something relative, eg "1 day". Make sure the relative date is newer than the pinned post
- Run the actor
- Observe the results. Notice that regular posts are filtered correctly. But if a post was pinned it will appear in the output as well, even if it is several weeks old.

In this example run https://console.apify.com/actors/nH2AHrwxeTRJoN5hX/runs/KyZU1ojuMM0hbtEoN#output I specified to only include posts newer than 1 day. But the first result is a pinned post from 6 weeks ago https://www.instagram.com/p/DItcjfEtgRO/. The second post was only 1 day old and was filtered correctly: https://www.instagram.com/p/DKmkFOBN_1r/
Hi!
In your run, input "skipPinnedPosts": false so you provided a parameter but assigned a logically wrong value to it.
I will close the issue now, but if there is anything else we can help with, please let us know.

I would still like pinned posts to appear in the resulting dataset, but only if they are newer than 1 day. Is this possible?
Hi!
Yes, if onlyPostsNewerThan is set and skipPinned === true, we do "smart skipping", meaning that we only skip pinned if they are older than onlyPostsNewerThan

Awesome, thanks for clarifying!
