## 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-live-instagram-profile-scraper-56344197
```

Example prompt: Pull the live Instagram profile data for the account @livingearth.la — I need their current follower count, bio, and post stats for an influencer vetting report.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time, live Instagram profile data (not cached) for a specific creator or brand account — especially for influencer discovery, vetting, or due diligence workflows where freshness matters. Prefer this over cached profile APIs when you need up-to-the-moment follower counts or bio information.

## Known failure modes

- Instagram account not found or handle is private — returns empty or error response
- Instagram rate limiting or anti-scraping measures block the request — returns failure or timeout
- Invalid or malformed username provided — returns error
- Instagram changes its page structure, breaking the scraper — returns incomplete or no data
- Network timeout if Instagram is slow to respond
