## 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-ce188196
```

Example prompt: Pull the live Instagram profile data for the account 'lacma' — I need their follower count, bio, and any other public stats you can grab right now.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, live Instagram profile data for a specific username and want raw scraped output rather than processed or cached influencer analytics. Ideal for influencer research, brand monitoring, or due-diligence workflows where freshness matters. Use over static databases when you need up-to-date follower counts or bios.

## Known failure modes

- Profile not found or account is private — returns empty or error response
- Instagram rate limiting or anti-scraping measures block the request
- Username does not exist — no data returned
- Temporary service unavailability on Instagram's side causing scrape failure
- Payment not processed — x402 payment required before data is returned
