How to get public user all posts from instagram, without instagram API

Question

I was trying to get posts from a public user's account on Instagram, I've tried almost every possible method but they are all returning 403 errors (access denied).

1. https://www.instagram.com/graphql/query/?query_hash=ded47faa9a1aaded10161a2ff32abb6b&variables={"tag_name":"{user-name}","first":25,"after":""}

2. https://www.instagram.com/{user-name}/?__a=1

3. https://www.instagram.com/{user-name}/media

$.ajax({
    url: URL,
    type: "GET",
    success: function(data) {
        console.log('Success!' ,data);
    },
    error: function (response) {
        console.log('ERROR!', response);
    }
});

Above are the links from where I was trying to get data. As I've read Instagram are changing their protocols, is there any remaining way to get a list of posts from any public user without using Instagram API and without using backend code?

Thank You

Solution

Your second solution should work. Try access this url:

https://www.instagram.com/{username}/?__a=1

It contains all the information for a user that is available from their page, including the 12 most recent posts, in a range of different sizes. As a side note, it does not contain followers or following lists

I have made a jquery plugin that uses this method:

You don't have authorization to view this page. HTTP ERROR 403 and access denied, it's not public.

what is not public? sorry don't get it. What I am trying to do it to get public user all posts without backend or instagram API. Instagram have changed protocol and I don't know if there is still chance to get this data.

Access is denied, it may be "public" only for registered users, ANYHOW, if you want to access posts without using API, you could make a scrapper.

sorry but can you be more specific what does 'make a scrapper' means? thanks.
