Hey everyone, The people from [www.onesimpleapi.com](https://onesimpleapi.com/) came up with an API that can fetch what @Lucas_Pires was needing. They are always open to work with you to find a way to make an api that works for your use case. > **[IGAPI](https://placid-roll-0065.glideapp.io/)** ---

It does. Actually, David’s Fetch column caches the response. ---

I think they haven’t launched the API yet. You can find their Slack on their website. About how to do it, either, I can share one of my videos in Spanish about how to do it or you can browse for one of Petitto’s videos on how to do it.
