post_url	Instagram URL submitted for the run.

Run summary fields

The final run_summary record includes:

• status — whether the run succeeded or failed.
• started_at and finished_at — run start and finish timestamps.
• post_url and shortcode — the submitted post details.
• unique_likers_returned — number of unique liker profiles saved.
• pages_fetched — number of retrieval batches completed.
• provider_count and provider_reported_total — source-reported count information, when available.
• invalid_profiles_skipped — records skipped because they did not contain a usable username.

• error — error details, if the run failed.
• duration_seconds — total run duration.

A copy of the run summary is also stored in the default key-value store under RUN_SUMMARY.

Please note: The 1,000-profile limit is a maximum, not a guarantee that every run will return 1,000 profiles. The number of results depends on the data available for the submitted post and the source's response. Only profiles returned with usable information can be included. The reported total, when present, may be higher than the number of profiles actually collected.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does this Actor do?

It collects available public profile information for users who liked the Instagram post or Reel supplied in the input.

2. Which Instagram URLs are supported?

The Actor accepts Instagram URLs using /p/, /reel/, /reels/, and /tv/ paths.

3. What is the maximum number of profiles I can collect?

You can request up to 1,000 unique liker profiles per run. The Actor enforces this maximum.

4. Will every run return exactly 1,000 profiles?

No. 1,000 is the maximum allowed, not a guaranteed result count. Actual results depend on the profiles available for the submitted content and the data returned during the run.

5. Are duplicate profiles included?

No. The Actor deduplicates profiles using their usernames, ignoring differences in letter case.

6. What information is included for each profile?

Available fields include username, full name, profile identifier, profile-picture URL, and privacy indicator.

7. Where can I find the results?

Open the Actor run in Apify Console and select the Dataset tab. You can also export the dataset in a supported format.

8. What is the run summary?

It is a final dataset record containing run status, result count, duplicate and invalid record counts, timing information, and other run metadata. A copy is saved in the key-value store as RUN_SUMMARY.

9. What happens if the Instagram URL is invalid or unsupported?

The Actor validates the URL before attempting data retrieval. Unsupported URL formats cause the run to fail with an explanatory error.

10. Can I collect more than 1,000 profiles in one run?

No. The maximum is intentionally limited to 1,000 unique profiles per run.

11. What does the timeout setting control?

It controls how long the Actor waits for the data retrieval operation before timing out. The default is 20 seconds.

12. Does the Actor guarantee that every liker profile will be available?

No. Profile availability and completeness depend on the source data returned for the submitted Instagram content. The Actor does not guarantee access to every account that liked a post.
