## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fast, pay-per-request access to public Instagram data without managing your own scraper infrastructure or applying for Instagram's official Graph API. Ideal for one-off lookups, influencer research, or competitor monitoring where cost-per-call at $0.16 USDC is acceptable and no long-term data storage or official API compliance is required.

## Known failure modes

- Private or restricted Instagram accounts may return no data or an access error
- Rate limiting or Instagram anti-scraping measures may cause empty or partial responses
- Invalid or deleted Instagram URLs/usernames return an error or empty result
- Schema is minimal so specific error codes are not well documented
- Scraper may lag behind Instagram UI changes causing intermittent failures
