Instagram phone verification with an API
Receive the Instagram SMS code on a real number programmatically — service code, best countries, and a copy-paste example.
Instagram requires phone verification on signup and for recovery. Provision a number for the instagram service and read the code via the API.
curl -X POST https://api.eveses.com/api/v1/numbers/orders \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" \
-d '{"country":"br","mode":"activation","service":"instagram"}'
Then poll /orders/{id}/sms or use a webhook. Brazil, India and Indonesia have deep Instagram pools; see live Instagram pricing by country. Finish the order once verified so you're billed only for the delivered code.
