<p>I'm trying out the new FeedMe plugin v2 beta 1 and am trying to download my recent photos posted on Instagram via the Instagram API. It appears Instagram is appending a cache parameters to the end of image URLs so when I try to download the images to a CraftCMS Assets folder Craft doesn't allow me to as it's not an allowed file extension. </p>

<p>The specific example is:</p>

<p>Instagram Request to get recent posts:
<a href="https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self/media/recent/?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self/media/recent/?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN</a></p>

<p>example URL for image returned:
somepic_n.jpg?ig_cache_key=hghhh....</p>

<p>Does anyone have any bright ideas how to handle this so I can download the images at the URLs or some option / feature then could be incorporated into the plugin to remove querystrings from the end of asset urls?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>
