## 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 influship-instagram-profile-scraper-9d84217b
```

Example prompt: Pull the live Instagram profile data for the account 'heavanm' — I need their follower count, bio, and any public stats you can get.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need live, real-time Instagram profile data without relying on the official Instagram Graph API, which requires app approval and access tokens. Ideal for influencer research, competitive analysis, or monitoring public account metrics for usernames you specify dynamically.

## Known failure modes

- Instagram rate limiting or blocking causes scrape to fail
- Username does not exist or account is private — returns empty or error response
- Instagram changes page structure causing scraper to break
- Network timeout if Instagram is slow to respond
- Payment not processed — 402 response requiring x402 payment before data is returned
