# Instagram Reel Preview Sizes for UI Testing

**Use case:** 

Export available Reel preview image variants and dimensions from Instagram profiles for a gallery layout test dataset. Developers can use the image references in their own authorized preview workflow to test aspect ratios and missing assets; video files are not downloaded.

## Input

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Instagram Profile Reels Scraper – Reel Export](https://apify.com/scrapingmonkey/instagram-profile-reels.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/scrapingmonkey/instagram-profile-reels.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/scrapingmonkey/instagram-profile-reels.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
