## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README



# Actor input Schema

## `username` (type: `string`):

要分析的 Instagram 用户名（不含 @ 符号）。例如：nike, starbucks, zara
## `limit` (type: `integer`):

最多抓取多少条帖子。超过 200 条时会自动分页和并发获取详情。
## `fields` (type: `array`):

指定要输出的字段列表。留空则输出全部字段。可选值：id, shortcode, url, timestamp, typename, caption, thumbnail, display_url, like_count, comment_count, engagement_rate, followers_count, is_video, video_url, video_duration, video_views, is_paid_partnership, product_type, sponsor_users, location, owner, carousel_children
## `output_format` (type: `string`):

数据输出格式
## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify 代理配置。推荐使用 RESIDENTIAL 代理以避免 Instagram 的 IP 屏蔽。
## `proxy_list` (type: `array`):

自定义 HTTP/HTTPS 代理列表。每行一个，格式: http://user:pass@ip:port。优先级高于 Apify 代理。
## `max_workers` (type: `integer`):

获取帖子详情时的并发请求数。建议 5-15，过高可能触发限速。

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "username": "nike",
    "limit": 100,
    "fields": [
        "shortcode",
        "like_count",
        "comment_count",
        "engagement_rate",

            "RESIDENTIAL"
        ]
    },
    "proxy_list": [],
    "max_workers": 10
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("tomato_cart/instaviz").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
