Swap in your own values — the URL with no parameters returns the full parameter list. If the response says RUNNING, fetch its resultUrl a few seconds later. Agent guide

Given one or more hashtags (with or without the leading #), extracts the hashtag's metadata (total post count) and its top and recent posts — each with shortcode, URL, caption, like/comment counts, timestamp, image URL and whether it is a video.

Data sources, in order of preference:

  1. Instagram's public tags/web_info JSON endpoint (richest — top + recent sections)
  2. Embedded JSON on the /explore/tags/<tag>/ page (edge_hashtag_to_top_posts / edge_hashtag_to_media)
  3. og: meta tags (total post count from the description)

One hashtag-summary item (type: "hashtag") is pushed per tag, followed by one item per post.

Instagram aggressively blocks automated traffic, so this scraper uses the premium Web Unlocker tier.

Premium — uses the managed web unlocker to get past anti-bot protection.
