Before You Start

This actor requires your own API credentials to fetch real data.

Where to get your key: Instagram password (not needed if using cookies)

Quick Start

Run with real data

{
  "password": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE",
  "cookieKvStoreName": "cookie-sessions",

}

Input Parameters

`cookieStorageKey`	string	-	No	Key to load cookies from the Cookie Manager KV store (e.g. 'instagram-myaccount'). Use this instead of pasting cookies manually. Requires a prior run of the Cookie Manager actor to capture and store your session.
`cookieKvStoreName`	string	`"cookie-sessions"`	No	Name of the Key-Value store where Cookie Manager saved the session. Defaults to 'cookie-sessions'.

Troubleshooting

"API key is required"

Add your API key in the input

"API error 403" or "Unauthorized"

Your API key is invalid, expired, or doesn't have access to this specific API endpoint. Double-check your key and account permissions.

"API error 429" or "Rate limit"

Too many requests. Wait a minute and try again, or reduce the number of items per run.

No results or empty dataset

Check the run log for error messages. Common causes:

Invalid input format (check the examples above)
API key without proper permissions
The target data doesn't exist or is too small to track

How do I test without an API key?

Running without credentials

If you run this actor without credentials, it returns clearly labeled sample data instead of posting. Each sample item includes demo: true and a notice field. Nothing is posted to Instagram and no task events are charged. Provide your own credentials in the input to post for real. Setting demoMode to true behaves the same way.
