## 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 sna4an-instagram-data-api-ig-api-68-2cf52318 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the Instagram profile data for the account @natgeo using the ig-api-68 endpoint — I need follower count, bio, and post count.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need Instagram-specific social data — profiles, posts, followers, engagement — and are operating in an x402 micropayment context. Prefer this over scraping or direct Instagram API calls when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call proxy without managing RapidAPI credentials directly.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or missing 'path' parameter returns an error or empty response
- Unsupported sub-endpoint path causes a 4xx error from the upstream RapidAPI service
- Private or restricted Instagram accounts may return limited or no data
- Rate limiting from RapidAPI backend causing 429 errors
- Instagram account not found returns an empty or error response
- Payment failure via x402 protocol prevents the call from being made
