How this service works
Get a single Instagram user's recent posts and reels (their feed) by profile URL or username.
Output
Returns a merged list of up to 12 posts per page (up to 240 posts for 20 pages) from the specified Instagram user's feed, including post metadata such as captions, media URLs, timestamps, and engagement metrics. If sentiment analysis is enabled, each post also includes an emotions object with scores for joy, trust, fear, surprise, sadness, disgust, anger, and anticipation (0-100), a dominant_emotion field, an emotional_intensity score (0-10), and a polarity label (positive, negative, or neutral).
Example use cases
Brand competitor social monitoring
“Grab the most recent Instagram posts from @nikerunning — give me 3 pages worth so I can see what they've been putting out lately.”
Influencer content audit with sentiment
“Pull the recent Instagram feed for the user @gordonramsay and turn on sentiment analysis so I can see the emotional tone of each post.”
Creator content research
“Get me the latest Instagram posts from https://instagram.com/natgeo — just 1 page is fine — so I can review their recent content themes.”
