What you can fetch

Action	Fetches	Required input	Optional
`userInfo`	User profile / account info	`userId` or `username`	—
`stories`	Active stories	`userId` or `username`	—
`highlights`	Highlight tray	`userId` or `username`	—

`followers`	Followers	`userId` or `username`	`maxId`
`followings`	Followings	`userId` or `username`	`maxId`, `count`
`likers`	Users who liked a post	`url` or `shortcode`	—
`comments`	Comments on a post	`url` or `shortcode`	`minId`

Input

Provide action plus the fields it needs (see the table above). Example:

{ "action": "posts", "username": "nasa" }

{ "action": "comments", "shortcode": "C1a2b3c4d5", "minId": "..." }

Output

The run's dataset contains one item — the raw response for your request, under a result key:

{ "result": { "count": 4849, "items": [ ... ], "page_info": { "end_cursor": "..." } } }

List endpoints (stories, highlights, highlightStories) return an array in result.
The shape of result matches the underlying Instagram data for that action.

Pagination

Paginated actions return a cursor (next_max_id / next_min_id / end_cursor). To fetch the next page, run the Actor again passing that cursor as maxId (or minId for comments). Each run returns a single page.

Run via API

curl -X POST \
  "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/<ORG>~instagram/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<APIFY_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "action": "posts", "username": "nasa" }'

The response is an array of dataset items; your data is in items[0].result.

Pricing

This Actor is offered on a monthly rental basis. Platform usage (compute) is billed to your Apify account as usual.

Notes

Validation happens before any network call: an unknown action or a missing required field returns a clear error.
Business responses from Instagram (e.g. "page not found", private account) are returned as-is in the dataset ({ "success": false, "message": ... }), so you can handle them programmatically.
