## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to programmatically extract public Instagram profile or post data without an official Instagram API token, paying only per request in USDC on Base chain. Prefer it for lightweight, on-demand scraping tasks where setting up OAuth with Meta's official API is impractical.

## Known failure modes

- Private or restricted Instagram account — scraper cannot access non-public data
- Invalid username or URL — returns empty or error result
- Instagram rate limiting or blocking — scraper may fail intermittently
- Malformed input — missing required fields results in an error response
- Instagram page structure changes may break scraper temporarily
