## 2026-08-06 — Breakdown & Metric addition

**Collaboration posts are now reportable, identified by the `Is Collaboration Post` field.** Instagram collaboration posts — posts published jointly with another account — are now included in the connector's post data. The new `Is Collaboration Post` field marks them, and works as either a breakdown or a metric, so collaboration posts can be isolated from the rest of the post set on a widget. A defined subset of post fields is populated for these posts.

Used on its own, the breakdown collapses the whole post set into two rows, so either of these setups is a better starting point:

* **Pair it with the Post breakdown**, in either order — `Post` then `Is Collaboration Post`, or `Is Collaboration Post` then `Post`. Each post appears as its own row, labelled with its collaboration status.
* **Filter instead of breaking down.** Set a filter of `Is Collaboration Post` equal to `true` to drop non-collaboration posts from the report entirely.

Fields available on a collaboration post:

| Group            | Fields                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       |
| ---------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Post attributes  | Post Creation Time, Post Date, Is Collaboration Post, Post Link, Post Media, Post Text, Post Type                                                                                                                                                                            |
| Delta metrics    | Post Likes (Delta), Post Comments (Delta), Post Total Likes (Delta), Post Total Comments (Delta), Post Total Views (Delta), Post Likes (Ads, Delta), Post Comments (Ads, Delta), Post Saves (Delta), Post Shares (Delta), Post Reposts (Delta)                               |
| Lifetime metrics | Post Likes (Lifetime), Post Comments (Lifetime), Post Total Likes (Lifetime), Post Total Comments (Lifetime), Post Total Views (Lifetime), Post Likes (Ads, Lifetime), Post Comments (Ads, Lifetime), Post Saves (Lifetime), Post Shares (Lifetime), Post Reposts (Lifetime) |

<Note>
  `Post Total Views (Delta)` and `Post Total Views (Lifetime)` always return 0 for a collaboration post that is not a reel.

## 2026-07-23 — Metric additions

**Twelve new post metrics split comments, likes, and views into total and ads-only figures.** Post comments, likes, and views were previously reported as a single organic figure per post. Each now has two additional variants: a **Total** metric covering organic and ads activity together, and an **Ads** metric covering the ads-driven portion on its own. Both variants exist in the Delta (daily change) and Lifetime (cumulative) forms already used by the existing post metrics. The original metrics are unchanged and continue to report organic-only figures.

| Existing (organic only)  | New — total                    | New — ads                     |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------------ | ----------------------------- |
| Post Comments (Delta)    | Post Total Comments (Delta)    | Post Comments (Ads, Delta)    |
| Post Likes (Delta)       | Post Total Likes (Delta)       | Post Likes (Ads, Delta)       |
| Post Views (Delta)       | Post Total Views (Delta)       | Post Views (Ads, Delta)       |
| Post Comments (Lifetime) | Post Total Comments (Lifetime) | Post Comments (Ads, Lifetime) |
| Post Likes (Lifetime)    | Post Total Likes (Lifetime)    | Post Likes (Ads, Lifetime)    |
| Post Views (Lifetime)    | Post Total Views (Lifetime)    | Post Views (Ads, Lifetime)    |

<Note>
  Total Views is not fetched for stories, so `Post Total Views (Delta)` and `Post Total Views (Lifetime)` return no value on story content. Story performance is reported through the dedicated story metrics — `Story Replies (Delta)`, for example — rather than through the post metrics.
</Note>

Delta metrics on Instagram Organic can occasionally come back negative after Meta recalculates a lifetime counter; see [FAQs](/data-sources/g-n/instagram-organic/faqs) for why.
