Goals

I want to implement the Share to Instagram Stories feature in my iOS app. Currently, the documentation allows passing:

  • Background (color, image, or video)
  • Foreground image

However, I’ve noticed that some apps (e.g., Benable) include an attribution URL when sharing to stories. I would like the ability to attach a URL so users can visit a link directly from the shared story.

Expected results

There should be a way to pass an attribution URL along with the shared content, similar to how other apps are able to include a tappable link in their stories. Ideally, this should be available as a parameter in the Instagram story share API.

Additional Details

  • The current documentation does not mention any method for adding an attribution URL.
  • Other apps have this functionality, so it seems possible, but there is no clear way to implement it using the public API.
  • I have attached a screenshot from Benable, showing an example of an attribution link in an Instagram story.

Would love to know if this is possible or if there are any plans to support it in future updates!
