How this service works
Reels
Output
Returns a list of Instagram reels for the specified user, including reel metadata such as video details, captions, engagement counts, and timestamps. Supports trimmed responses for lighter payloads and cursor-based pagination via max_id for retrieving additional pages of results.
Example use cases
Influencer content audit
“Grab all the reels from Instagram user @cristiano and list them with their metadata so I can audit what video content he's been putting out lately.”
Competitor social media monitoring
“Fetch the most recent reels from the Instagram handle @nike — I want to track their short-form video posting activity for the past few weeks.”
Creator reel dataset collection
“I need to collect the reels feed for Instagram user ID 12345678 and then page through to get more — use the pagination cursor to get all available results.”

Side effects
- Invalid or non-existent Instagram handle returns empty or error response

- Missing both handle and user_id causes a validation error
- Rate limits or Instagram anti-scraping measures may cause intermittent failures
- Invalid max_id cursor results in pagination errors or duplicate results
