POSThttps://apify-api-git-br-apify-typed-input-schemas-merit-systems.vercel.app/api/actors/apify/instagram-hashtag-scraper/callWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to bulk-extract Instagram post data organized by hashtag, including engagement metrics and media details. Prefer this over manual browsing or other scrapers when you need structured data (captions, likes, plays, timestamps) at scale for social listening, influencer research, or content analysis.

- Invalid or non-existent hashtag returns empty result set
- Instagram rate limiting or anti-scraping measures may cause partial results
