v1.2 (2026-06-11) — Input schema cleanup: strip duplicate sectionCaption keys from hashtags, directPostUrls, onlyPostsNewerThan, and includeRecentComments so the Apify form UI no longer renders repeated section headers under each property.

Initial release. Scrape Instagram posts from profiles, hashtags, and direct post URLs in one actor. Includes captions, engagement metrics, media URLs, location, tagged users, and coauthors.

v1.1 (2026-05-22) — Soft-fail user-input validation: convert Actor.fail on missing/invalid input to Actor.exit with WARNING status. Prevents user-input errors from counting as actor failures and dragging down 30-day success rate.
