Pricing
$1.40 / 1,000 results
One Instagram scraper for five jobs: profiles with follower counts, posts and reels by URL with likes and comments, hashtag and keyword search volume, trending topics, and locations. Reads public pages only, no login and no session cookie.
Pick the kind of input you have. Keyword searches Instagram's public search terms. Profile takes usernames and returns the account plus its recent posts. URL accepts any Instagram post, reel or profile link. Location takes location IDs. Trending ignores your input and reads Instagram's trending page.
What to look up, matching the type above. Terms like 'laptop', usernames like 'natgeo' or '@natgeo', full Instagram URLs, or numeric location IDs. Instagram URLs are always detected automatically, whatever type is selected.
[ "laptop", "@natgeo", "https://www.instagram.com/reel/DVdFk_9jCan/"]How many of each profile's posts to return, newest first. Goes back through the account's full post history, up to 1000 per profile.
Reels to return from each profile's Reels tab, with play counts and audio. Includes reels the creator made together with other accounts. 0 skips the Reels tab. Reels that also appear among the posts are returned once.
Legacy field, still supported. Prefer the Search input above. Accepts terms, usernames, URLs or location IDs and detects each automatically.
[ "laptop", "coffee shop aesthetic"]Return keyword rows (search volume plus related keywords), reel rows (individual reels with engagement), or both.
How many levels to follow Instagram's own related-keyword links outward from each seed. 0 returns only the seeds. 1 typically yields around 30 keywords per seed. Higher depths grow quickly, so pair with Max keywords.
Hard cap on how many keyword pages the run fetches, including expanded ones.
Hard cap on reel rows. Each keyword page lists up to 12 reels.
Fetch each reel's own page to add its exact like count, total comment count and the comments themselves. Views, captions, owner details and download URLs are returned either way. Turn off for a much faster run.
Attach comments to each reel row, with author, text, like count, timestamp and reply linkage. Requires Enrich reels. Comments are nested in the reel row, so they cost no extra results.
Upper bound on comments attached to each reel. Instagram serves roughly 12 to 15 per reel without logging in, so higher values simply return whatever is available.
Also follow the related-topic links attached to individual reels, not just the related keywords listed on the term page. Widens keyword discovery considerably.
Also return what Instagram is currently surfacing on its public trending page, independent of your search terms.
Legacy field, still supported. Usernames to fetch as profile rows with their recent posts.
[ "natgeo"]Optional Instagram location IDs. Returns name, latitude, longitude and total post count. The ID is the number in an instagram.com/explore/locations// URL.
[ "212988663"]Parallel requests against Instagram. Raise carefully; too high increases the rate of throttled responses.
Fetch each reel's lightweight embed page to add the creator's follower count, engagement rate, audio track title and artist, and video duration. Roughly seven times smaller than the full reel page.
Also crawl the terms Instagram is currently promoting, on top of your own. Most of them have pages, so they are far better seeds than guessed terms, though a few very fresh news terms do not render yet. Useful for discovery when you do not know what to search for.
