## 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 stablesocial-instagram-reels-search-4f3901ba -d '<json body>'

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need keyword-based discovery of Instagram Reels without maintaining Instagram credentials or a subscription. Ideal for trend monitoring, competitor research, influencer identification, and content auditing. Prefer this over authenticated Instagram APIs when you need quick, frictionless, pay-per-use access and don't require write operations or private account data.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results if the keyword returns no matching Reels for the given date range
- Invalid date_posted enum value causes a validation error
- Missing or empty query string results in a bad request error
- Rate limiting or upstream Instagram access issues may cause intermittent failures
- High page numbers beyond available results may return empty pages

## How this service works

Pay-per-request access to social media data from TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and LinkedIn. No auth, no subscriptions.

## Output

Returns a paginated list of Instagram Reels matching the search query, filtered by the specified date range. Each result likely includes reel metadata such as video identifiers, captions, engagement signals, creator handles, and timestamps.
