What Instagram data can I retrieve?
The raw API covers public profile data, recent posts, individual post-page data, batch post lookup, single video transcripts, and batch video transcripts. Returned fields vary by endpoint and by what Instagram exposes for the requested public content.
How is this different from the official Instagram API?
Meta APIs are permissioned integrations for connected professional accounts and their media, publishing, messaging, or insights. Influship raw endpoints retrieve current public profile and post data by username or shortcode, so a brand-side workflow does not require every public creator to connect an account first.
Can I fetch recent posts with a profile?
Yes. Set include_posts=true and choose a post_limit from 1 to 50. The profile response includes the recent posts available in Instagram's source response, up to that requested limit. For richer fields tied to one post page, call the single-post endpoint with its shortcode.
Can I retrieve Instagram video transcripts in bulk?
Yes. POST /v1/raw/instagram/transcripts accepts up to 10 shortcodes per request and returns one success or error item for each requested shortcode. API-key metering charges successful transcript items.
How much do Instagram data calls cost?
With an API key, a live profile costs $0.005, a post costs $0.01, and a video transcript costs $0.05. Batch post and transcript routes use the same per-successful-item prices.
Does Influship provide a Python SDK?
There is no official Python SDK. Use the REST API directly with requests or httpx. The official TypeScript and JavaScript SDK is available from npm as influship.
