## 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-simple-data-endpoint-728dca25 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the basic Instagram profile data for the account @cristiano so I can see their follower count, bio, and post stats?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, low-friction lookup of basic Instagram profile data without setting up a full Instagram API integration. At $0.20 USDC per call on the Base chain, it is best suited for one-off lookups, lead enrichment, influencer vetting, or lightweight social media research where simplicity and pay-per-use pricing outweigh the cost of a dedicated integration.

## Known failure modes

- Private or non-existent Instagram account returns empty or error result
- Rate limiting from Instagram's underlying data source may return incomplete data
- Malformed or invalid username/URL input may return null result
- Payment failure on Base chain results in 402 response before data is retrieved
- Instagram API restrictions may limit available fields or return stale cached data
