👤 Instagram Profile Scraper

The email is in the bio. Most scrapers just do not return it.

Scrape Instagram profiles for lead generation. Just add Instagram usernames or profile URLs to extract followers, following, bio, category, website, verification and business status, plus the public email address, phone number and business location.

✨ What makes this Instagram scraper different

	Most Instagram scrapers	This one
Filtering	Returns everything, you filter afterwards	Filters before counting, so you pay for matches
Sorting	Whatever order the platform gave	Enforced with a stable tiebreaker, identical every run
Missing data	A silent 0 you cannot distinguish from a real zero	Named in meta.fields_unavailable
Bad input	Burns a run, then fails	Rejected before the request is made

🎯 What can I do with Instagram Profile Scraper?

Build a creator shortlist you can actually contact

Filter to a reach band and keep only profiles that publish contact details. What comes back is an outreach list, not a research project.

{
  "targets": ["creator_one", "creator_two"],
  "filters": { "min_follower_count": 10000, "max_follower_count": 100000, "has_contact_details": true }
}

Qualify inbound in one call

Check whether an account is real, verified, business, and how big, before anyone spends time on it.

{
  "targets": ["prospect_username"],
  "filters": { "exclude_private": true }
}

Keep a CRM current

Re-run the same usernames on a schedule and write follower counts and category back to your records.

{
  "targets": ["account_a", "account_b", "account_c"],
  "sortBy": "follower_count",
  "sortOrder": "desc"
}

▶️ How to scrape Instagram profiles

1. Add your Instagram usernames or profile URLs to targets
2. Set limit, and optionally Sort by and filters
3. Click Start
4. Download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel or XML, or pull it from the API

⬇️ Input

Field	Required	Description
targets	yes	Instagram usernames or profile URLs.
limit	no	Max items per target, applied after filtering. Default 15, max 5000.
sortBy	no	Pick a field to order by. Leave empty for the default order.
sortOrder	no	Highest first or lowest first. Defaults to highest first.
filters	no	Applied before sorting and before the limit.

{
  "targets": [
    "natgeo",
    "nasa"
  ],
  "sortBy": "follower_count",
  "sortOrder": "desc",
  "filters": {
    "min_follower_count": 10000,
    "has_contact_details": true
  }
}

🎛️ How to filter and sort Instagram profiles

Filter	Effect
min_follower_count / max_follower_count	Target a reach band, e.g. micro-influencers only
verified_only	Only verified accounts
business_only	Only business or creator accounts
exclude_private	Drop private accounts you cannot use
has_contact_details	Only profiles exposing an email or phone

Filters run before the row count, so a narrow filter costs less than a broad one. Sorting is applied with a stable tiebreaker, so two identical runs return identical order, and the sort you pick is applied server-side, not left to the platform.

⬆️ Output

One row per item, exportable as JSON, CSV, Excel or XML, or straight from the API.

🛡️ Why results stay reliable when Instagram changes

Instagram changes what it returns. When a field stops being available it does not vanish from the schema: it comes back empty and meta.fields_unavailable names it. You branch on that instead of guessing why a number is zero.

❓ FAQ

Can I get emails from Instagram profiles?

Yes. public_email is returned whenever the account publishes one, and filters.has_contact_details keeps only profiles that expose an email or phone. That single filter is usually the difference between a list and a lead list.

How do I find Instagram influencers by follower count?

Use min_follower_count and max_follower_count together to target a band, for example micro-influencers between 10k and 100k.

Can I scrape private Instagram profiles?

No, only public ones. Use filters.exclude_private to drop private accounts from the results.

How many Instagram profiles can I scrape at once?

Add as many usernames to targets as you need. Each comes back as its own row.

Does this Instagram profile scraper return the business address?

Yes, when the account publishes one. location carries street, city, zip and coordinates.

Can I get all the links from an Instagram bio?

Yes. bio_links returns every link, not just the single legacy website field.
