## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fast Instagram data retrieval and want to pay per request in USDC without managing an Instagram API key or developer account. It is well-suited for agents that need occasional Instagram lookups without committing to a subscription, and when low-latency response is important.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or missing request parameters returns an error in the result object
- Instagram rate limiting or account restrictions may cause empty or error responses
- Private accounts may return limited or no data
- The endpoint may return stale cached data if the underlying scraper is lagging
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) results in HTTP 402 before any data is returned
- Malformed input object may result in a 400-level error
