A compact, production-grade Apify Actor that scrapes Instagram following lists for one or more input profiles and saves results in real time to the dataset.
Why Choose This Actor?
- Matches your required output shape (same keys as your
output.json) - Bulk input (URLs or usernames/keywords)
- Smart proxy fallback:
- Start with no proxy (direct)
- If blocked → fallback to datacenter proxy
- If blocked → fallback to residential proxy
- If residential fails → retry 3 times with residential
- After fallback happens → stick to residential for remaining requests
- Clear progress logs to keep the user engaged
Input
Example:
{"urls": ["https://www.instagram.com/mrbeast/","virat.kohli"],"maxItems": 300,"pageSize": 12,"sessionId": "YOUR_SESSIONID_COOKIE_VALUE","proxyConfiguration": {"useApifyProxy": false}}
Output
Each dataset item contains these keys:
pk,pk_id,id,full_name,is_private,fbid_v2,third_party_downloads_enabled,strong_id__,profile_pic_id,profile_pic_url,is_verified,username,has_anonymous_profile_picture,account_badges,latest_reel_media,is_favorite,followed_by
Notes / Cautions
