# Accounts an Instagram user follows (100 results)

**Use case:** 

Get the list of accounts an Instagram user follows as clean JSON or CSV. Each row has the username, full name, profile picture, verified and private flags and a link to the profile. Press Start as it is for up to 100 accounts followed by one user, or change the username to any public account. You can add more usernames to scrape several accounts in one run.

## Input

```json
{
  "usernames": [
    "zuck"
  ],
  "dataToScrape": "followings",
  "maxResultsPerUser": 100,
  "enrichWithCounts": false,
  "excludePrivate": false,
  "includeHistorical": false
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "sourceUsername": {
    "label": "Source account"
  },
  "message": {
    "label": "Note"
  },

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/memo23/instagram-following-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
