How to solve the problem with adding to instagram close friends?

Question

Instagram

Good to everyone.
I will describe the meaning of the task, my colleagues and I decided to whip up something like automating adding a user to close friends on Instagram.
There are no problems with authorization (the web version of Instagram helps here) and a headless browser.
But the functionality of close friends in the web version is missing, actually available only in the instagram application.
How and with what tools can you automate adding to the list of close friends?

Answer 1

You take the requests that the application sends and send the same ones.
You can pick them up yourself, you can probably look for someone who has already picked them up in insta api on github and other places
