Instagram Scraper Issue – Incorrect View Counts

Open

GenGo opened this issue
3 days ago

Good afternoon. We're using the Instagram scraper from Apify:

https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apify~instagram-scraper/runs?token=...

https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-runs/{{ $json.data.id }}?token=...

https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/{{ $('Edit Fields').item.json.data.defaultDatasetId }}/items?token=...

For some reels, it has started returning incorrect view counts. It shows 1 or 2 views, when in reality, there could be thousands, tens of thousands, or 700-800 views. No clear pattern has been found.

Yesterday, this affected 46 reels from different accounts.

Today, it's 33 reels (some new ones appeared compared to yesterday).

Questions:

What could be causing this?

How can we fix it?

Can we get a price adjustment for the scraper given these problems?
