## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability kiteendpoints-ai-instagram-scraper-stable-api-2d58c959 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Scrape the public Instagram profile for username 'natgeo' and give me their bio, follower count, post count, and latest post captions.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need public Instagram data without an official Instagram API token, or when the official API's rate limits or permission requirements are too restrictive. Ideal for influencer research, competitor analysis, or social listening tasks that require accessing publicly visible Instagram profiles or posts at a per-request cost.

## Known failure modes

- Instagram account is private — scraper cannot access private profiles
- Rate limiting or anti-scraping blocks from Instagram cause empty or error responses
- Invalid or non-existent username returns empty result
- Endpoint may return stale cached data if Instagram changes its page structure
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) returns 402 error before scrape is attempted
