Get your first accounts free in under 2 minutes — type a username, click Start. No configuration, no credit card to try.

What can the Instagram Followers Scraper do? {#what-can-it-do}

• 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Export the follower list of any public account.
• ➡️ Or export the following list with one switch — same output shape.
• 🆔 Get numeric user IDs so your list survives username changes.
• ✅ See who is verified and which accounts are private.
• 🖼️ Get avatar URLs for building visual audience boards.
• 🔀 Compare two accounts by running both and intersecting on userId to find audience overlap.
• 🏷️ Every row carries ofUsername and relation, so multi-account runs stay separable.
• 📏 Control cost precisely with the results limit — you decide how deep to go.
• 📤 Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML, or pull live via API.

Go beyond the limits of the official Instagram API: no OAuth app, no app review, no quota juggling — paste your input and collect publicly available data.

Who uses the Instagram Followers Scraper? {#who-uses-it}

• 🎯 Audience researchers — understand who actually follows a brand or creator.
• 🤝 Influencer marketers — check follower quality and detect obvious bot clusters.
• 💼 Lead generation teams — build prospect lists from a competitor's audience.
• 📊 Competitive analysts — measure audience overlap between two accounts.

What data can I scrape? {#what-data}

Field	Type	Description
username	string	Handle.
fullName	string	Display name.
userId	string	Numeric account ID (stable if the handle changes).
url	string	Profile link.
profilePic	string	Full-resolution avatar URL.
verified	boolean	Verified badge.
private	boolean	Whether the account is private.
ofUsername	string	The account whose list this row belongs to.
relation	string	followers or following, matching the direction you asked for.

Fields reflect what Instagram exposes publicly for that item. Values that do not exist for a given item are returned as null rather than dropped, so your schema stays stable.

---

How to scrape follower and following lists {#how-to}

1. Open the Instagram Followers Scraper on Apify.
2. Add accounts to Instagram usernames.
3. Choose the direction — followers or following.
4. Set Max accounts — this directly controls how deep (and how expensive) the run is.
5. Click ▶ Start and export the dataset.

No login, no cookies, no proxy configuration. Start with one input to see the output shape, then scale the same run — the fields stay identical, so code written against a test run keeps working.

---

Input example {#input-example}

{
  "usernames": [
    "natgeo"
  ],
  "direction": "followers",
  "resultsLimit": 1000
}

• usernames — accounts whose lists you want.
• direction — followers (who follows them) or following (who they follow).
• resultsLimit — hard cap on accounts returned per input account.

---

}

Every run produces a clean dataset you can page through in the Apify Console or pull via API. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML in one click.

How much will it cost? {#pricing}

Simple, predictable pay-per-result pricing — you pay for the accounts you actually receive, not for compute time.

• 💸 Pay per account — budget is just accounts × rate, so you can estimate spend up front.
• 📉 Volume discounts — Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond Apify plans get progressively lower rates.
• 🆓 Free to try — new Apify accounts include monthly free usage, so your first run costs nothing.
• 🚫 No hidden fees — no proxy add-on, no per-request API charge, no minimum spend.

See the live rate on the Apify store page.

---

Tips {#tips}

• 📏 Start with a small limit. Follower lists are huge; sample a few thousand before committing to a big run.
• 🔀 For overlap analysis, run two accounts and join on userId — handles change, IDs do not.
• ✅ Filter on verified to pull just the notable accounts out of a large list.
• 🔒 private: true rows are still useful as identity records even though their posts are closed.
• ⏰ Snapshot monthly and diff the lists to see churn.
• 🧹 De-duplicate on userId when you merge several runs.

Use the data with AI agents (MCP) {#mcp}

The Instagram Followers Scraper is available through the Apify MCP server, so AI assistants can call it as a tool and pull follower and following lists on demand.

• 🧩 Claude — add the Apify MCP server and let Claude fetch and analyse the data.
• 🤖 ChatGPT — use the actor as a tool inside research and reporting workflows.
• 🖊️ Cursor — pull structured results straight into your coding sessions.

Common AI-agent recipes:

• 🎯 Audience profiling — "summarise who follows this account: verified share, private share."
• 🔀 Overlap check — "which accounts follow both of these brands?"
• 🤝 Quality audit — "does this follower sample look organic?"
• 💼 Lead list — "give me the verified business accounts from this list."

---

Integrations & API {#integrations}

Connect the actor to the tools you already use: Make, Zapier, n8n, Slack, Airbyte, Gumloop, CrewAI, IFTTT, Lindy, GitHub, Google Sheets, and Google Drive — plus webhooks, Apify Schedules, and the MCP server.

Run synchronously and get the dataset (Apify API)

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/myagizm~instagram-followers-scraper-v2/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"usernames": ["natgeo"], "direction": "followers", "resultsLimit": 1000}'

Start a run asynchronously

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/myagizm~instagram-followers-scraper-v2/runs?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"usernames": ["natgeo"], "direction": "followers", "resultsLimit": 1000}'

Fetch dataset items later

$curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/myagizm~instagram-followers-scraper-v2/runs/last/dataset/items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN&format=csv"

Change format to json, csv, xlsx, or xml to export in your preferred format. The Apify Console also auto-generates ready-to-paste JavaScript, Python, and CLI snippets plus an OpenAPI spec for this actor.

FAQ {#faq}

Can I export the complete follower list of a huge account?

You control depth with the results limit, but very large lists take many runs and cost scales with rows. Sampling is usually the practical choice.

Can I get followers of a private account?

No. Private accounts are skipped and reported in the run log.

Does the output include follower counts for each row?

No — rows are identity records. Pipe the usernames into the Instagram Profile Scraper if you need each follower's stats.

Can I get followers and following in one run?

Run the actor twice (once per direction) or queue two tasks; the relation field tells the rows apart.

Do I need an Instagram account, login, cookies, or API key?

No. There is no login, no cookies, no Instagram Graph API app, no app review, and no access token. Paste your input and run.

Is it legal to scrape Instagram?

The actor collects only publicly available data — the same content any visitor can see without logging in. It never logs in and never accesses private accounts. You are responsible for compliant use: if the data contains personal data, follow GDPR, CCPA, and other applicable regulations, and respect Instagram's terms.

Can I scrape private accounts?

No. Private accounts are reported in the run log and skipped. The actor never bypasses access controls.

Do I need proxies?

No. Proxy handling is built in and managed for you — nothing to configure or supply.

Can I export the results to CSV, Excel, or JSON?

Yes. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML from the Console, or use the API format parameter.

Can I use it with the Apify API?

Yes — the sync and async endpoints are shown above.

Is there an MCP server for AI agents?

Yes. The actor is exposed through the Apify MCP server, so Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor can call it as a tool.

Can I schedule runs?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules or trigger runs via API and webhooks to keep the data fresh.

How fresh is the data?

There is no caching. Every run reads the current public page, so numbers are live at run time.

Media URLs stopped working after a while — why?

Instagram signs its CDN links and they expire. Download or re-host media in the same session you scrape it.
