Put the account in Start Profiles in place of the demo nike and run. The task reads Instagram's own Suggested for You list for it and returns each suggested account as a row with followers, category and contacts.
It does not guess. It returns the accounts Instagram itself suggests next to your seed, the same kind of list you see in the app's Discover People tray.
Yes, up to five Start Profiles, one per line. Each seed adds its own suggestion list to the results, and a profile is analyzed and charged at most once per run.
Depth 1 returns the accounts suggested for your seeds. Depth 2 also expands the suggestions of those suggestions, which can find thousands of profiles. Depth 2 needs a paid plan; Max profiles to process caps the run.
No. It reads public profile data only and never asks for your Instagram login, password or cookies, so no account of yours is involved.
