Scraper unable to detect posts. Only found 2 posts from 26 possible.

Hi!

In your run date filter "onlyPostsNewerThan": "2025-01-31" was applied, and posts were not scraped because of it.

Re-run without date filter: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/1ypvtgiA9m2cTwdJ8

Please note that posts should be public (visible without Instagram logged-in user) to be scraped.

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

There were many posts dated newer just many not picked up. The date is an important variable. It works for 300+ profiles but the scraper is starting to produce errors by missing profiles. We have used this a lot and analyse the data so we know when the scraper is missing a lot of important data.

Let me know if you have any idea.

Hi!

Do you have any other direct example(s)?

For profiles from run filtering out by date was correct:

  1. https://www.instagram.com/maui_thegoldenpup/ top post is https://www.instagram.com/p/C9JVSEAJDQC/ dated July 8, 2024
  2. https://www.instagram.com/cody.taurus/ with two pinned posts from 2023 and top regular post https://www.instagram.com/p/C5ykaeXryX0/ dated Apr 16, 2024

I have advanced analysis. I highlighted the rows/profiles of which most of them will probably be incorrect (the scraper is missing a lot of posts)
