How to get an Instagram photo or post URL

If the option to get a link to a photo or video isn’t available to you in the app, you can also get the link by viewing it on the web. Every Instagram account has a username, which you can find when visiting that profile on the web or within the mobile app.

To get a URL from the web:

Once you know the username, open a web browser and go to https://instagram.com/username. For example, if the username is “johnappleseed” go to https://instagram.com/johnappleseed.
Click the post(s) you want to get a link to.
For each post, copy the URL that’s at the top of the browser.
