Instagram Post/Reel Info API

Post/Reel Info
for Instagram, in one call.

The Post/Reel Info endpoint from ScrapeCreators gives developers reliable access to Instagram data without the hassle of building and maintaining scrapers. Our endpoint makes it easy to retrieve post/reel info data in real-time for your applications. Retrieve public post/reel details. *Play counts can sometimes be inaccurate* Play counts are Instagram-only. When a Reel is also cross-posted to Facebook, Instagram (behind login) shows you the combined IG + FB views. But this API will only return the Instagram views.
