Notes

  • since and until are UTC dates, and both ends are included. Without them you get the last 90 days.
  • A point exists only when SOLARI collected the account, so gaps between points are normal.
  • Most accounts have no points from 2025-08-26 to 2025-09-27. That month was not collected and cannot be filled in.
  • Check current.collected_at before treating current as today's numbers.
  • This reads the catalog only. If the account is missing, call solari fetch instagram account username=… first. Recording starts from then; past values cannot be filled in.
