How this service works
Search Reels 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
A paginated list of Instagram Reels matching the search keyword, including reel metadata such as video titles, creator info, view counts, and links. First-page calls are billed at $0.02 USDC; subsequent pagination calls using parentRequestId on the same logical search are billed at $0.
Example use cases
Brand mention monitoring on Reels
“Search Instagram Reels for 'Nike running shoes' and give me a list of the videos that come up — I want to see what creators are saying about the brand.”
Competitor content research
“Find Instagram Reels about 'cold brew coffee' so I can see what kind of content is performing well in that space for my café's marketing strategy.”
Influencer discovery by niche
“Search Instagram Reels for 'fitness home workout' and page through the results — start with page 1 and then get page 2 using the same search so I can find creators to potentially partner with.”
