Instagram Followers / Following Scraper

Try for free

Scrape a seed account's followers or following list — one lightweight row per profile. No posts by default. Pay per delivered profile only, single flat price. Requires the user's own Instagram session token, because Instagram requires a login for followers/following lists.

Also scrape posts (opt-in, OFF by default)

includePosts

Optional

OFF by default. If true, posts are scraped in addition to the list. This is a different, much heavier and more expensive job — do not enable it for a followers-list job.

Type:boolean

Default:false

Fetch full profile details per profile (ON by default)

includeProfileDetails

Optional

ON by default (changed 2026-10-26). The Actor makes one extra web_profile_info request per profile (with your sessionToken) to fill followerCount / followingCount / biography, paced ~0.8s apart. Without it those fields are null, because the followers/following list payload does not carry them — a follower actor without follower counts is useless, so this is no longer opt-in. Set false only if you want the fast lightweight rows with null counts. It needs a sessionToken to work, and makes runs slower with a small extra proxy cost.

Type:boolean

Default:true

Limit per seed

limit

Optional

Maximum profiles returned per seed account. Default 200 matches the typical small DM-list use case. Hard range 1–1,000 per seed — this cap is what keeps a run lightweight and cheap.

Followers or following

listType

Optional

Which list to scrape from each seed account.

Type:string

Default:followers

Proxy configuration

proxyConfiguration

Optional

Apify Proxy. Residential proxies are recommended for Instagram; datacenter IPs are rate-limited far more often.

Type:object

Seed usernames or Instagram URLs

seeds

Required

One or more seed accounts. For each seed, the Actor returns that seed's followers OR following list (see listType). Each entry may be a username (e.g. natgeo) or a full profile URL. Limit applies PER seed.

Type:string[]

Min. items:1

Instagram session token (required for followers/following lists)

sessionToken

Optional

Your own Instagram session token (the sessionid cookie value from a logged-in Instagram browser session). REQUIRED in Oct 2026: Instagram returns login_required for followers/following lists without a session, even for public accounts. Paste only the sessionid value, or a cookie string containing sessionid=... — the Actor sends it only to instagram.com as a Cookie for this run, never logs it and never stores it in the dataset. Leave empty only to try logged-out (expected to fail for lists). Do NOT share this token with anyone else; it gives access to your Instagram session.
