Compared to alternatives
- vs other Instagram Comment scrapers on the Store — pay-per-result billing means empty or failed searches cost nothing; you are not charged for a run that returns zero rows.
- vs building your own — no proxy management, markup-change maintenance, or infrastructure to run; paste inputs and consume the dataset.
Limitations
-
Instagram requires login for most comment surfaces — many posts return a
login_wallerror row; this is an inherent platform limit, not a bug. -
No private or restricted content.
-
Comment counts on posts are approximate.
-
Use public data lawfully and respect applicable privacy and platform rules.
FAQ
Do I need an account or cookies?
No — the Actor reads public data only. There is no login to configure and no account to risk.
What happens when a search returns nothing?
The run completes with zero (or an explicit error) rows. Per-result billing means you are not charged for empty output.
Can I run it on a schedule?
Yes — attach an Apify schedule or use the saved tasks to re-run the same inputs daily or weekly.
