Step 1 — Embed Widget (works now, zero code)
Elfsight · Tagembed · EmbedSocial
Sign up at elfsight.com, tagembed.com, or embedsocial.com — connect your Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, or TikTok — then paste the embed URL below as a Social slide in any playlist. No API keys required.
Step 2 — Instagram API (auto-refresh via Netlify Function)
Requires: Netlify deploy + Instagram Basic Display API token
The included Netlify Function (
netlify/functions/instagram-feed.js) polls your Instagram account and writes new posts directly to Firebase as image slides. Set your token below and it activates automatically on deploy.
Setup Steps
1. Go to developers.facebook.com/apps → create an app → add Instagram Basic Display
2. Add your Instagram account as a test user and generate a long-lived access token
3. In your Netlify dashboard → Site settings → Environment variables → add
4. Redeploy — the function runs every time it's called and can be triggered on a schedule via Netlify scheduled functions

📊 Data Usage ControlsFirebase Quota
Control which high-frequency Firebase write features are active. Disabling screenshots and reducing heartbeat frequency are the most effective ways to reduce monthly download quota.
Thumbnail captured on every slide transition (~40 KB each write)
Hourly impression counts per screen — used in Analytics tab (1 write/slide)
Full duration log per slide — exportable CSV for client reporting (1 write/slide) ⚠ High write volume
60s
💡 Recommended for free tier: Disable Auto Screenshots · Disable Proof-of-Play · Set Heartbeat to 180s+.
Screenshots and PoP are the highest-volume writes. Enable PoP only when you need client reporting.

Configure external storage so the Media Library can accept files larger than the 700 KB Firebase limit. Credentials are stored in your browser only — never sent to Anthropic or any third party.
