Instagram Highlights Viewer

This Apify actor lets you view and download Instagram Highlights and their Stories easily.

Features

• Get all highlights for any public Instagram username.
• Fetch stories from a specific highlight using its ID.
• No login required – just enter the username or highlight ID.
• Structured JSON output for easy automation or analysis.

How to use

1. Input a username to get all highlights for that Instagram profile.
2. Input a highlight ID to get all stories from that highlight.

Example Input

{
  "username": "selenagomez",
  "highlightId": ""
}

• If you only want stories from a specific highlight, set highlightId (you can get it from the highlights data).
