⚠️ Issues Occuring ⚠️

Today an unexpected change in the Instagram API seems to be causing big issues with the checking protocol.
We are at work on it, but we do not have right now an estimated resolution time

Problem Status:

- Panel ✅ Working
- Bot ✅ Working
- Stories ✅ working
- Likes ✅ Working
- Comments ✅ Working
- Follow ✅ Working

🔝 Latest Updates 🔝
This last month has been focused on improving the overall EngageBot.PRO experience, providing new features and improving the existing ones, especially speed


⚙️ Optimization and Faster WebServer ⚙️
Thanks to the help of an expert, we reworked our webserver settings to deeply optimize it, increasing response speed and reducing requests delay.
Especially in this period of Instagram and Telegram updates, a stronger webserver is a must have!


🔆 Daily Requests Limit Auto-Consumption
You now have the possibility to disable auto-consumption of credits when you reach your daily limit of requests.
Instead of consuming a credit to increase the daily requests, the bot will simply stop, allowing YOU to decide whether or not to consume credits.
On top of this, credits are now consumed immediately and not every 10 minutes as it used to do, to guarantee a flawless work without interruptions


🔗 Developers API V1
We officially released the first version of the EngageBot.PRO API
➡️ https://api.engagebot.pro/

This API version offers you the following features:
- Bot Informations
- Groups List and Informations
- Users List
- Photos List and Management (DELETE)
- Pending List and Management (DELETE, CREATE)
- Autodrops List and Management (DELETE, CREATE, LOG)
- Whitelist List and Management (DELETE, CREATE, LOG)
- Follow List and Management (DELETE, CREATE, LOG)
- Blacklist List and Management (DELETE, CREATE)

We will keep adding new features to the API
If you have any suggestion, do not hesitate to contact us!

⚠️ Proxy Maintenance ⚠️

Our proxy provider is running a quick maintenance, we'll let you know as soon as it finishes

🕐 Edit: The situation looks risolved, but we're waiting for official proxy host communication

✅ Edit: issue resolved

📅 Latest Updates 📅
During the last month, we worked on improving all checking procedures, and on a new Comments management after the last Telegram Update


💬 Improved Comments Checking
We worked on improving comments checking, to make it faster and more stable, after the last Instagram update that forced us to completely remake the full API


👀 Stories now are saving the Author username
We resolved a small problem with stories that sometimes weren't correctly saving author's username, causing problems in engagement and on webpanel


✏ BIG Commands Update ✏

As you may have noticed, now telegram allows to do many different things with Bot commands:

1. Translate them, to show commands in multiple languages

2. Show them only in private chats or group chats

3. Show them only to admins or to normal users


🔝 So we did the following updates:

+ /help and /start commands are now bot-only
+ /list and /rules commands are now group-only

+ Improved private chat commands
+ Improved group chat commands
+ All administration commands are now shown in groups

+ All private chat commands are now translated in Italian, English, German and Spanish
+ All group chat commands are now translated in Italian, English, German and Spanish
+ All administration commands are now translated in Italian, English, German and Spanish

+ You can now add more custom commands to commands list in the "Bot Settings" page

⚡️ Hotfix ⚡️

Near 12:00 (UTC+1) Instagram performed an update that changed the number of results in the following API calls:

- Get Likes (likes list)
- Get Comments (comments list)

Because of that, the system in various situations obtained a wrong list of likes and comments under the photos (Requesting the last 200 comments it was receiving the last 50, requesting the last 300 likes it was receiving the last 50)

Since it wasn't seeing the missing likes/comments, it was reporting correct actions as "wrong" ones.

✅ This problem has been resolved and the instagram API has been updated

📅 Latest Updates
During the last 15 days we have been hard working on improving the overall use of the bot, improving checking procedures, proceeding with saves feature beta and updates, and much more


🔝 SAVES FEATURE
The saves feature BETA is still active: If you want to try out the feature before anyone else contact @EngageBotSupport.
Thanks to our beta tester we did many improvements and updates


📄 Pending List After-Check
Now you can enable an extra feature that will check every photo before posting them from pending list to the group.
This way, if a photo has been deleted or is unreachable while being pending, it won't be posted in the group.


⚙ Default Settings update:
- Admins can now post unlimitedly by default
- Admins are now always whitelisted by default
- Force Dx format iscnow disabled by default
- Format replacement is now enabled by default


👁 Making the panel easier to use
We are working on making the webpanel easier to use for administrators, hiding useless features according to the group type and more:
- Auto hiding comments settings if no-comments group
- Auto hiding saves settings if stories group


⚡ Improved Default messages and errors
You no longer need to save errors and messages when configuring a group for the first time. Now they will be saved by default


📅 Expiration for Global Ads and Messages
You can now set an expiration date for periodic Ads and periodic global messages


🌠 Improving Checking Speeds
We are hard working on improving checking speeds! Some important results have been reached, but we're not stopping here!


🌐 Webserver optimization and improvements
We gave an important boost to our Webserver, that now works faster and is more stable!


❌ Custom Error for Invalid Photo
As suggested by many of you, we split the "Format" error and the "Invalid Photo" error, that now can be changed individually

📆 Latest EngageBot.PRO Updates 📆

ℹ️ During the last weeks we focused on improving every aspect of our system, fix Instagram issues, and make the bot faster and even more stable.

❕ We decided to publish a "half-month" update instead of waiting for the October's newsletter because we have many important news for you!

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

📸 Instagram Updates ❗️

During this last weeks, especially on September 2, Instagram performed various updates that damaged our systems.
Instagram that day went offline for over 3 hours, and when it returned back online, all the endpoints were changed and were giving errors that banned all our of checking accounts.

🔝 We worked hard, and in less than 1 hour all the problems were resolved, the APIs were updated, and we purchased 10'00 accounts to work flawlessly again.

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

⚡️ Checking Speeds Increase ⚡️
Along with the last Instagram updates, we improved the checking speeds, and continued working on our brand new Parallel Checking, that is taking a lot of efforts and consuming resources and time.
We hope to be releasing it soon, after evaluating what the cost may be for the platform.


⚙️ Daily Requests Limit ⚙️
We updated how the daily requests number is updated, to make the bot faster, but most importantly we now allow the bots to Continue Working even when the remaining daily requests are 0!
The bot won't check actions, but will keep working with basic features and everything!


🌐 Website Boost 🌐
We incredibly boosted our website speed and all it's tables.
Loading times went from 5 - 10 - 20 seconds to 0.1 seconds!

📊 Some of the improved pages
- Missed Photos Table
- Purchase Page
- Stats Page (from 2 minutes to 1 second)
- Autodrop Table
- Autodrop Log
- Follow Table
- Follow Log
- Pending Photos Table
- Photos Table (from 1 minute to 1 second)
- Whitelist Table
- Whitelist Log
- Warns Table
- TOP Users
- Usage Graph


🪧 Tables Improvement 🪧
We also reworked our tables system to improve filtering and loading speeds:

- Blacklist Table has now @ before any username to allow searching with @
- Blacklist Table has now bold "Group" if filtered per group
- Blacklist Table has now an index for faster loading

- Warns Table has now @ before any username to allow searching with @

❔ How would you improve the Stories Feature? ❓


We know that many of you don't like the fact that the users need to open an "EngageBot.PRO page" before accessing the story.

This was mandatory though, because otherwise it would never redirect to the story page on Instagram

How would you change this?

⚠️ Issues with Responses ⚠️

We are experiencing some issues in interaction between telegram and our photos database

We are working on the issues right now

✅ The problem has been resolved with a soft 3-months limit in data recording
We will update as soon as we create a final solution

⚠ Issues with Stories ⚠️

It seems that Instagram is updating their app-links, because right now direct links to stories are no longer working on 90% of the devices.

This problem is not related to the bot itself, since even trying manually (clicking "Share" on a story and sharing it to a friend) won't work: The link won't automatically redirect to the story

✅ The only thing we can do right now is wait for Instagram to resolve the issue

🔝 Improved Translations for EngageBot.PRO 🔝

We have greatly improved the translation system of EngageBot.PRO, implementing new languages, and improving the alignment of those present.
In this way, each language will be automatically translated as soon as an update is released!
