I am trying to use the Facebook Graph API to GET Instagram metrics such as post impressions. I was able to successfully pull my Instagram Follow Count by using this query
{instagram_user_id}?fields=follow_count
When I try to query my post impressions with
{instagram-media-id}/insights?fields=post_impressions
nothing shows up. Am I missing something or have I possibly not requested the correct permissions?
I am trying to follow the documentation at the below link. Is it even possible to pull the impressions through the Facebook Graph API?
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/instagram-media/insights/
Thanks!

Facebook's Instagram will finally get Insights for Reels Through the latest update, the Facebook-owned app is also introducing detailed information about Reach through a new tab in Account Insights.
You can access Page Insights by typing /insights after the name of your page in the URL field. This command will retrieve all of the Insights associated with your Page. Type "/insights" after your company name. Click the Submit button.
Go to your app and click the facebook login with the scope "instagram_basic". With the access_token that you get you are able to ask Graph API about the user's instagram business account. Et voilà.
I believe that it wasn't possible to pull insights using the older version of the API.
However now it is possible as instagram / facebook just released a new version of their Graph API that includes insights. The request would be:
v2.10/{instagram_media_id}/insights?metric=impressions
The new documentation can be found here
