Sharing Image with Instagram using Android Intents

The Instagram API Platform can be used to build non-automated, authentic, high-quality apps and services that:

Help individuals share their own content with 3rd party apps.
Help brands and advertisers understand, manage their audience and media rights.
Help broadcasters and publishers discover content, get digital rights to media, and share media with proper attribution.

Instagram did not open their sharing API. You have to use Intents ...Here is the example for sharing images with Instagram using intents.

mButtonWhatsappShare = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button_share);
mButtonWhatsappShare.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

@Override

// TODO Auto-generated method stub

String type = "image/*";
String filename = "/Capture.png";
String mediaPath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + filename;

createInstagramIntent(type, mediaPath);
}
});
}

private void createInstagramIntent(String type, String mediaPath){

   // Create the new Intent using the 'Send' action.
   Intent share = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
    share.setPackage("com.instagram.android");
   // Set the MIME type
   share.setType(type);

   // Create the URI from the media
   File media = new File(mediaPath);
   Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(media);

   // Add the URI to the Intent.
   share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
   share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "This is my text to send Instagram.");//Instagram will not take text as input..
   
   try {
startActivity(share);
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO: handle exception
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Instagram application not found..", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

}
}
