How this service works
Pay-per-call e-commerce, product, price and social media data tools for AI agents, from public sources. Payment: x402, USDC on Base, Solana, Arc, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, World Chain, Optimism, Avalanche, Celo or Stellar, or RLUSD/XRP on the XRP Ledger. No signup, no API key; a failed call is not charged.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing: an array of story highlight objects (each with highlight ID, title, cover thumbnail URL, and link), plus profile-level metadata including full name, follower count, following count, bio text, verified flag, and private flag. Highlight story items themselves (the individual slides inside each highlight) are not included as those require a login.
Example use cases
Brand Instagram audit
“Can you fetch all the story highlight titles and cover images from Nike's Instagram profile, along with their follower count and bio?”
Influencer research
“Look up the Instagram highlights tray for the account 'kimkardashian' — I want to know what story categories they've pinned and how many followers they have.”
Competitor social monitoring
“Grab the Instagram profile info and highlights for our competitor 'glossier' — I need their bio, verified status, follower count, and the names of all their pinned story highlights.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.shopsocial-api.workers.dev/api/social/instagram-highlights?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to inspect the public-facing story highlights tray of an Instagram account without authentication — ideal for brand research, influencer vetting, or competitive monitoring. It is well-suited for bulk or automated workflows since it uses a residential proxy to reduce blocks. It does not require Instagram credentials and does not return the contents of individual highlight slides.
Side effects
- Username not found — profile does not exist or has been deleted
- Profile is private — highlights tray may not be visible to logged-out visitors
- Instagram rate limiting or block via residential proxy — request may fail or return empty
- Invalid username format — returns validation error
- Account has no highlights — returns empty highlights array
- Instagram changes their web JSON structure — parsing may break and return incomplete data
