How this service works
Instagram Recent Posts ($0.006/call): Fetch up to 12 recent posts from a public Instagram account by username: permalink, caption, like and comment counts, ISO timestamp, video flag, as clean JSON. One call resolves the username and returns the posts. No Instagram account or API key needed.
Output
A JSON object containing the resolved username, the number of posts returned (up to 12), and an array of post objects each with: Instagram shortcode, post permalink URL, caption text, like count, comment count, ISO 8601 timestamp, and a boolean indicating whether the post is a video.
Example use cases
Influencer engagement audit
“Pull the most recent posts from Instagram user 'kyliejenner' and tell me which ones got the most likes and comments.”
Brand content monitoring
“Check what @nike has posted on Instagram recently — I need the captions and timestamps for their last 12 posts so I can see their content cadence.”
Competitor social analysis
“Fetch the latest Instagram posts from the account 'glossier' and give me the permalink, caption, and engagement numbers for each so I can compare them to our own.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://x402.botsmith.dev/ig/postsWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need recent post content and engagement metrics from a public Instagram account without requiring an Instagram developer account or API credentials. It is ideal for quick one-shot lookups of up to 12 posts, influencer research, brand monitoring, or social analytics pipelines where OAuth setup is impractical. Prefer a direct Instagram Graph API integration if you need more than 12 posts, need private account data with user consent, or require real-time webhook-based updates.
Side effects
- Private or nonexistent Instagram account returns an empty posts array or error
- Username pattern validation failure (invalid characters or length > 30) returns a 400-level error
- Instagram rate limiting or anti-scraping measures may cause intermittent failures or empty results
- Recently created accounts with no posts return a count of 0 and an empty posts array
- Network timeout if Instagram is slow to respond
