Support Request: Custom Output Fields & Data Formatting in Instagram Scraper
Open
Dear Apify Team,
I hope this message finds you well.
I am currently using your Instagram Scraper to extract posts related to specific hashtags — for example, #hairtoxx. While the scraper is functioning overall, I am experiencing a few challenges that I would appreciate your help with:
-
Extracting only specific fields:
When scraping hashtag-related posts, I would like to export only the following fields from the "latest posts" section:timestampownerUsernamelocationNameurl
However, the Excel output includes a large number of fields by default, and I haven’t found a way to select only the ones I need.
-
Date format issues:
The timestamp field is currently exported in ISO format (e.g.,2025-02-02T18:43:00.000Z). I would prefer to receive the date in the formatdd/mm/yyyydirectly in the Excel file. -
Follower count:
I also need to extract the follower count of the profiles posting the content, but this information is not included in the current output when scraping hashtag mentions.
Is there any way to configure the scraper or the dataset output to meet these requirements? My ideal result would be an Excel file with only the necessary columns mentioned above, with properly formatted dates and follower counts where available.
Any guidance or custom configuration options would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your support!
Best regards,
Melissa.
