I ran 'RUN' and within the time limit I set, it didn't find a single video that actually exists within that timeframe for the account. Could you please tell me why this might have happened?

Hi!

It is a known limitation: the actor getting data without an Instagram login, so public data as seen in incognito browser https://www.instagram.com/viva_la_vika/ with https://www.instagram.com/reel/DF44iLPoo5M/ and https://www.instagram.com/reel/DFz93V1oI0l/ but not https://www.instagram.com/reel/DF2VECdIyzz/

We know that such skipped reels might be available by direct URL and at the same time not presented in the reels feed. We also know that such posts might appear in the reels section https://www.instagram.com/viva_la_vika/reels/ for logged-in Instagram users. But for the actor, it is not on the public list of posts.

I will recheck if is there a better way to get a more accurate feed and let you know.
