## 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 scrape-creators-instagram-profile-65a1ab94
```

Example prompt: Pull the public Instagram profile data for @natgeo — I want to see their follower count, bio, post count, and whether they're verified.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured public profile metadata from Instagram, such as for influencer research, brand monitoring, or account verification. Prefer this over manual scraping or Instagram's official API when you need fast, no-auth access to public profile stats at low cost ($0.02/call).

- Account not found or username invalid — returns 404 or empty result
- Private account — may return limited or no data
