Description

Hi! I'm currently working on a Chrome extension that interacts with Instagram, and I already have the necessary cookies for authentication (like sessionid, csrftoken, etc.) from the browser. I'm trying to figure out how I can use the Instagram Private API directly in the extension to send direct messages or perform other actions, but without relying on Node.js.

Here's the problem:

• I don't want to set up a Node.js backend for my extension.
• I already have access to the cookies stored in my browser session.
• I would like to know how I can interact with the Instagram API using those cookies directly within the browser (i.e., from the extension) to send messages, retrieve data, or perform other Instagram actions.

Is it possible to integrate the Instagram Private API directly in a Chrome extension without Node.js? I would appreciate any updates, tips, or examples on how to achieve this.

Thanks!
