Technical details

Endpoint

POSThttps://api.getanyapi.com/v1/run/instagram.following?utm_source=zero.xyz

When to prefer

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically retrieve the following list of an Instagram user without managing Instagram API credentials or subscriptions. Ideal for influencer research, social graph analysis, competitor monitoring, or auditing who an account follows. Prefer this over direct Instagram API integration when you need pay-per-use pricing with no monthly commitment.

Side effects

Private or restricted Instagram account returns empty or access-denied response
Invalid or non-existent Instagram username returns an error
Instagram rate limiting or anti-scraping measures cause request failure
Temporary Instagram platform changes break the scraper and return incomplete data
Missing required input parameter returns a validation error

Input

Schema · Request body

Field	Type	Description
cursor	string	Opaque pagination cursor from a previous response's nextCursor. Today every source behind this endpoint returns a single page of about 50 accounts and no continuation cursor, so nextCursor comes back empty and there is no further page to request; this parameter is accepted but has nothing to resume from.
source	array	Optional. Source ids to prefer, in order, taken from this endpoint's `lanes[].source.id` in /catalog or /apis. Omit it and the cheapest source serves, with automatic failover. Listed sources are tried first in the order given, then the others, unless `allowFallbacks` is false. A single source with `allowFallbacks` false is served only by that source at its price, quoted and charged exactly, with no failover. The price is that of the dearest source that may serve. An id that does not serve this endpoint is rejected as invalid input with no charge; a listed source that is not serving right now is refused with no charge, so omit `source` to be served by another. On a paginated walk, later pages must include the source that served page one, or omit `source`.
username	string	The Instagram username, user ID, or profile URL whose following list to fetch (e.g. natgeo).
ignoreSources	array	Optional. Source ids to skip for this request, taken from this endpoint's `lanes[].source.id`. The cheapest remaining source serves and the price is that of the dearest remaining source. An id that does not serve this endpoint, or that is also in `source`, is rejected as invalid input with no charge; skipping every source is rejected the same way.
requireFields	array	Optional; omit it and routing is unchanged, with the cheapest source serving. Name the output fields this request must be able to return, for example `private`, and it is served only by a source that returns every one of them. Fields you do not name are still returned whenever the serving source has them. This can raise your price: when the cheapest source cannot return a named field, a dearer source serves, and you are quoted and charged its price. A named field can still be absent on a profile that genuinely lacks it. Naming a combination that no single source returns together is refused as invalid input, with no charge. On a paginated walk it applies to the first page only; later pages stay with the source that page chose, at the price it was quoted.
allowFallbacks	boolean	Optional, default true. When false, only the sources listed in `source` may serve; the request is refused with no charge if none of them can. When true, the listed sources are tried first and any other source may serve after them, at the normal price.
preferLatencyUnderMs	integer	Optional; omit it and routing is unchanged, with the cheapest source serving. Prefer sources whose typical response time (median over the trailing 30 days, as published on this endpoint's lane health) is under this many milliseconds; among those, the cheapest serves. This can raise your price: when the cheapest source misses the target, a faster and dearer one serves, and you are quoted and charged its price. If no source is that fast the request is still served, by whichever source offers the best speed for its price - it is never refused for being slow. Sources we have not timed are tried last. This is a preference, not a guarantee: the median describes past requests and is not a ceiling on this one, and it excludes any wait this request itself asks for. On a paginated walk it applies to the first page only: later pages stay with the source that page chose, at the price it was quoted.
