## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability coockies-ai-instagram-media-api-786acd7f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the recent media posts from the Instagram account @natgeo — I need the image URLs, captions, and engagement counts for the last 10 posts?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pay-per-call, no-subscription way to retrieve Instagram media data without managing your own Meta developer credentials or Instagram Graph API integration. Ideal for sporadic lookups or agent workflows that occasionally need Instagram content without committing to a monthly API plan.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or private Instagram account returns empty or error result
- Rate limiting from underlying Instagram API causing failed lookups
- Missing or malformed account identifier resulting in no data returned
- Instagram API token expiry causing authentication failures
- Non-existent media ID returning null result object
