## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly extract public Instagram profile or post data without managing your own scraping infrastructure, and you want to pay per request in USDC rather than maintain a subscription. It's well-suited for one-off lookups, influencer research, competitor monitoring, or enriching lead data with social media signals. Prefer this over building a custom scraper when freshness requirements are moderate and cost-per-call economics work for your use case.

## Known failure modes
