some posts appear multiple times

Closed

hello, a few months ago i scraped a large amount of posts (roughly 10k) and I am planning to use the results for research. All these posts share one specific hashtag. I have a few questions about the data and I would be eternally grateful if someone could help. If necessary I can pay for a consultation. I exported the data as a cvs file. I exported the hashtags, link, timestamp and other data.

  1. Some posts have multiple slides. However, it seems to me that sometimes there's a data entry for every slide (e. g. a post with 5 slides appears 5 times in the exported cvs file) and sometimes there's only one, even tho the post contains multiple slides. Is this at all possible or am i just misinterpreting the data? I screenshotted every slide of every post with a script and there are far more screenshots than entries so I don't really know what's happening.

  2. If a post contains the same hashtag (the specific one i searched for) more than one, will the post show up more than once in my exported data?

  3. Is there any way to differentiate between video posts, image posts and posts containing multiple slides? (the scraping is already done)

Thank you so much.

Hi!

Sorry for the late reply, the email notification was lost

  1. sample run https://console.apify.com/view/runs/qxLpQtBnNTUONEXD9 works fine, see https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/0dvD0zuY34dWqvJ9u/items?clean=true&format=json&fields=shortCode,type so https://www.instagram.com/p/DFt0_H9T4K9/?img_index=1 is "Sidecar" and https://www.instagram.com/p/DFttsLzse9H/# is "Image"
  2. yes, post details include all the hashtags https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/0dvD0zuY34dWqvJ9u/items?clean=true&format=json&fields=shortCode,hashtags
  3. it is possible to get the "reels" https://console.apify.com/view/runs/1vkfVq1LurgkE79Da or "posts" https://console.apify.com/view/runs/qxLpQtBnNTUONEXD9 and it is the only filtering option provided by Instagram and, in turn, by the actor

I will close the issue now, but if there is anything else we could help with, please let us know.
