How this service works
Comments Pagination billing: call the first page normally and save billing.requestId from the Orthogonal /v1/run response. For later page, offset, or cursor calls on the same logical search, pass parentRequestId with unchanged non-pagination parameters. Valid continuation calls still get their own request IDs and quoted price, but are charged 0. Changing filters starts a new billable request.
Output
Returns a paginated list of comments on the specified Instagram post or reel, including commenter usernames, comment text, and a cursor for retrieving the next page. Also includes billing metadata such as a requestId for use as parentRequestId on subsequent pagination calls (which are charged $0 if non-pagination parameters remain unchanged).
Example use cases
Brand sentiment from product post
“Grab all the comments from this Instagram post where we announced our new sneaker launch — https://www.instagram.com/p/XYZ789ABC/ — I want to see what people are saying.”
Competitor audience research
“Scrape the comments on this popular Instagram reel from a competitor brand: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DEF456GHI/ — I want to understand what their audience is talking about.”
Influencer engagement audit
“Fetch all the comments from this influencer's Instagram post at https://www.instagram.com/p/MNO321PQR/ so I can check if the engagement looks genuine.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://x402.orthogonal.com/scrapecreators/v2/instagram/post/comments?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to programmatically retrieve comments from a specific Instagram post or reel by URL, especially when you need to paginate through large comment threads cost-effectively using the parentRequestId billing feature. Prefer this over manual scraping or generic web scrapers when you need structured comment data with reliable pagination support.
Side effects
- Invalid or inaccessible Instagram post URL returns an error
- Private account posts that are not publicly accessible cannot be scraped
- Expired or invalid pagination cursor results in an error or empty response
- Changing filter parameters on a paginated call triggers a new billable request
- Rate limiting or Instagram anti-scraping measures may cause temporary failures
