What is the Working of Instagram Scraper?

Instagram Scraper permits you to crawl Instagram posts from hashtags pages, user profiles, or locations. If you provide an Instagram post link in the input, it can also extract comments for that post.

Instagram Scraper is an unofficial API that we have designed to give you the functionality to access deleted public data from the Instagram API in the past. Further, it allows anyone to collect public data from the platform without restricting their account type.

This Instagram Scraper has the following features:

  • Extract Profiles - you can scrape Instagram posts or metadata from the required user profile.
  • Extract Locations - the scraper allows you to extract metadata or post from any location for a specific search query.
  • Extract Hashtags - you can scrape metadata or post from any hashtag for a specific search keyword.
  • Extract Comments - the scraper allows you to extract comments from Instagram posts.

Do You Want to Scrape Only Instagram Profiles, Hashtags, Comments, or Posts?

We have dedicated Instagram scrapers to collect specific data. You can use them instead of a universal Instagram Scraper to get quick results. To use them, just feed the URL or username and tap on the scrape option.

Do you need anything different with specific customization?

You can try our Instagram API Scraper with customization if you still need to get everything you expect from Instagram Scraper. Or you can contact us if you need a more custom solution for Instagram data scraping.

How can I use Instagram Scraper?

If you wish to learn about the process of Instagram Scraper working, check out the stepwise tutorial with examples.

Can I Scrape Instagram Data Legally?

Our Instagram Scraper has an ethical algorithm that doesn't extract personal data like gender, email address, or location. This Scraper only collects publically accessible Instagram data. Hence, we believe that our scraper is safe to use. But you may get some private data in your results by mistake. Regulations like GDPR protects personal data in the world. You can't extract any private information without genuine reason. If unsure whether you have a simple objective to Scrape personal data, you must consult your lawyer before scraping it.

Usage Cost

To execute the Instagram data scraper on the Real Data API platform, here are the two major factors to consider:

  • Compute Unit Consumption: scraper consumes them during execution.
  • Traffic Proxy Server Traffic: you need to use it while sending scraping requests to Instagram.

Depending on the page type you are scraping from Instagram, the cost of scraper usage varies. There are a few pages you just need to open, like details, and a few pages you need to scroll down, like comments on the post. You must compare how much time it will consume to do these actions manually and learn how to transfer utilization costs from case to case.

What is the cost of usage to scrape an Instagram profile?

Extracting data from one thousand profiles needs 0.24 GB proxy traffic and 10 compute units.

Sample Pricing

With the Real Data API pricing, scraping data from one thousand profiles will cost 0.24 GB * 12.5 USD + 10 CU * 0.25 USD which totals 5.5 USD. The personal plan of 49 USD on our platform allows you to extract nine thousand profiles monthly from Instagram.

Input Parameters of Instagram Scraper

You should feed the list of Instagram pages in the JSON format to visit on Instagram. Here is the example input tab with the list.

Input Example of Instagram Scraper 

{
    "search": "Niagara Falls",
    "searchType": "place",
    "searchLimit": 10,
    "resultsType": "posts",
    "resultsLimit": 100,
    "proxy": { "useRealdataAPIProxy": true, "RealdataAPIProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }
}

While Executing the Scraper

During the execution, the scraper will send you output messages to share which page scrapes from the platform. Every alert message includes a short label mentioning which page the scraper is crawling. You must see the message after loading page items with total and loaded item counts. If you submit the wrong input to the Instagram Scraper, it will instantly fail to run and display the reason for failure.

Output Format of Instagram Scraper

The scraper stores its outputs in a formatted dataset. Every data item is unique in it.

You can get the output in any coding language like PHP, Python, NPM, or Node.js. To learn more about how to get results, check the API reference.

Instagram Scraper with Real Data API Integrations

Lastly, you can connect Instagram Scraper with any web application or cloud service with the help of Real Data API integrations. Many Scraper integration options include Zapier, Airbyte, Make, Slack, Google Drive, GitHub, and Google Sheets. You can also use Webhooks to commence an action in case of an event occurrence, like setting an alert once the Instagram Scraper completes the execution successfully.

Using Instagram Data Scraper with Real Data API

The Real Data API platform gives you programmatic Instagram Scraper access. We have organized the Instagram API around RESTful HTTP endpoints that allow you to schedule, manage, and execute it. The scraper also allows you to track its performance, access datasets, retrieve outputs, update or create new versions, etc.

To use the scraper using Python, try our client PyPl package, and to use it with Node.js, try our client NPM package.

E-commerce & Retail

You should have a Real Data API account to execute the program examples. Replace < YOUR_API_TOKEN> in the program using the token of your scraper. Read about the live APIs with Real Data API docs for more explanation. 

import { RealdataAPIClient } from 'RealdataAPI-Client';

// Initialize the RealdataAPIClient with API token
const client = new RealdataAPIClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
