Use Cases
How teams use this API to build powerful applications
Social Media Managers
Keep an eye on competitor activity and campaign hashtags. With the scraper, you can quickly compile what kind of content competitors are posting and how their audience engages, informing your own strategy.
Influencer Marketing
Agencies can gather stats on potential influencers without manual research. Pull follower counts, engagement metrics, and recent content to identify who might be a good fit for a campaign.
Brand Hashtag Campaigns
If you run a hashtag campaign or contest, use the scraper to collect all the posts with your tag. This makes it easy to review entries or feature user posts on your channels, without manual labor.
Academic Research & Journalism

How to Use the Instagram Scraper
Get started with the Browsable dashboard
Just enter an Instagram username and let our dashboard fetch the profile details and latest posts. See follower counts, bios, and recent posts displayed without any coding or login required.
Track a hashtag by simply typing it in. The scraper will gather recent or top posts for that hashtag, including images and caption snippets, so you can monitor trends or user-generated content in one place.
Analyze multiple Instagram accounts simultaneously. Upload a list of usernames and get back a consolidated report of each account’s key metrics (followers, average engagement) and recent posts. Perfect for comparing influencers side by side.
Set up automatic scraping on a schedule to track changes over time. For example, monitor a competitor’s follower growth or grab daily posts from a hashtag. The data will update and can trigger alerts if significant changes occur.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the Instagram API
Can I scrape Instagram stories or private profiles?
No, the scraper only works with public content. Instagram Stories disappear after 24 hours and require login to view, so our tool does not scrape them. Private accounts are not accessible either, respecting user privacy.
Will the scraper include images and video from posts?
We provide direct URLs to images and thumbnails of videos in the scraped data. You can use these URLs to download media. However, be mindful of Instagram’s terms if you plan to reuse this media publicly. Videos are not downloaded, just referenced by URL.
How often can I run the scraper for a given target without getting blocked?
We handle rotation of IPs and use delay strategies. As a user, you can run frequent scrapes (even every few minutes) on small sets of data. For very large or continuous scrapes, we recommend spacing out tasks or consulting with us for a dedicated solution.
Does this tool handle Instagram’s new content (Reels, IGTV)?
For the most part, Reels and regular posts appear similarly on web profiles and can be scraped as part of the user’s posts. We capture the post caption and engagement stats. However, specific metadata like audio track on Reels is not separately provided at this time.
