Get public Instagram data without wrestling with browsers. Add usernames or URLs, choose profiles, posts, or Reels, and receive normalized rows ready for spreadsheets, CRMs, workflows, and AI agents.

What Instagram Scraper collects

  • Profile identity and engagement totals
  • Post and Reel captions, timestamps, likes, and comments
  • Owners, shortcodes, thumbnails, public media URLs, and carousel children
  • Optional raw source objects for advanced pipelines

Quick start

The default input returns recent public posts for mrbeast.

{
"usernames": ["mrbeast", "natgeo"],
"directUrls": [],
"resultsType": "posts",
"maxItems": 50
}

You can also provide profile, post, or Reel URLs in directUrls. Direct media URLs return that item regardless of the selected feed result type.

Example result

{
"platform": "instagram",
"id": "123456789",
"type": "post",
"shortcode": "ABC123",
"url": "https://www.instagram.com/p/ABC123/",
"ownerUsername": "mrbeast",
"caption": "Example caption",
"likesCount": 120,
"commentsCount": 8,
"timestamp": "2026-09-01T12:00:00.000Z",
"scrapedAt": "2026-09-14T02:30:00.000Z"
}

Pricing

$0.80 per 1,000 results ($0.0008 per instagram-result event).

A result is charged only when it is accepted into the dataset, and Apify proxy and platform usage are included in that price. Failed sources are reported separately and are not charged.

Limits
