## 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-6bd98572
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the live Instagram profile data for the account @moca — I need their current follower count, bio, and any other public profile stats available right now?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need live, real-time Instagram profile data without going through Instagram's official API (which requires OAuth and app approval). Ideal for influencer research, creator vetting, and competitor analysis where you need up-to-date follower counts and profile metadata on demand. Prefer this over cached databases when recency of data matters.

## Known failure modes

- Profile not found or username does not exist — likely a 404 or empty result
- Instagram rate limiting or blocking causing scrape failure
- Private account with no publicly accessible profile data
- Username changed or account deactivated
- Scraper temporarily unavailable due to Instagram anti-scraping measures
- Payment failure via x402 protocol resulting in 402 response
