Instagram Highlight Scraper

Keep a durable index of Instagram highlights. The run starts from Instagram highlight URLs and keeps highlight identifiers, titles, handles, iD, and content type on each returned highlight.

The record

The dataset schema names every field before the run. The first working set is title, url, id, highlightId, username, userId, image, contentType, and scrapedAt. Dataset views keep related fields together without changing the underlying row.

Captured row

{
  "highlightId": "18123023338592759",
  "id": "highlight:18123023338592759"
}
