Instagram User Posts Scraper

🤖 Instagram User Posts Scraper

Extract detailed public post data from Instagram user profiles at scale. No login required. Perfect for research, analytics, lead generation, and more.

📌 Features

• 📝 Post Details: Images, Videos, Post type, Caption text, and more..

• 🎯 Statistics: Like count, Comment count, Video view count, Post date

• 🦾 Bulk Scraping: Process multiple Usernames or URLs at once

💰 How much does it cost?

This scraper uses a pay-per-event (PPE) pricing model. There are two types of events that generate a charge:

• Starting Actor → $0.005
• Scraping Post → $0.001 per post

For example, scraping 1,000 posts will cost:

$0.005 + ($0.001 × 1000) = $1.005

🚀 How to Use Instagram User Posts Scraper

1. Click on Try for free or go to Input tab of the Actor.

2. Provide one or more Instagram profile URLs or Usernames.

3. (Optional) Set the maximum scraped post count for each profile or leave it blank to scrape all posts.

4. Click Save & Start and wait for the scraping process. If you get any error, please create an issue under the Actor’s Issues tab.

5. When Instagram Post Scraper has finished, preview or download your data from the Output tab.

📝 Notes

• This scraper only extracts publicly available information.

• Restricted (18+) profiles and posts are not publicly accessible, therefore cannot be scraped.

🔒 Free Tier User Limitations

Free tier users can scrape up to 2 profiles and 12 post per profile per run. Upgrade to a paid Apify plan for higher limits.
