## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

## 👤 Instagram Profile Scraper

> 🚀 **Collect profile data from any public Instagram account in seconds.** Enter usernames and export bio, follower counts, post counts, profile picture, verification status, and business info. No login, no API keys, no Instagram developer approval.

> 🕒 **Last updated:** 2026-04-23 · **📊 20+ fields** per profile · **👤 Username input** · **✅ Verification status** · **🚫 No auth** required

The **Instagram Profile Scraper** collects profile metadata from any public Instagram account, returning **20+ fields per profile**: username, full name, bio, follower count, following count, post count, profile picture URL, verification status, business category, external URL, and account type. No Instagram login or Graph API credentials needed.

The Actor accepts a list of usernames and returns structured profile data for each account. Designed for influencer researchers, social media analysts, and brand teams who need Instagram account data without the friction of the official Graph API.

| 🎯 Target Audience | 💡 Primary Use Cases |
|---|---|
| Social media analysts, influencer marketing teams, brand managers, PR agencies, academic researchers, HR teams | Influencer vetting, audience analysis, competitor monitoring, profile enrichment, brand partnership research |

---

### 📋 What the Instagram Profile Scraper does

Username-based profile extraction:

- 👤 **Username input.** Enter one or more Instagram handles (without @).
- 📊 **Full profile data.** Follower count, following count, post count, bio, and more.
- ✅ **Verification status.** Blue checkmark and business account flags.
- 🖼️ **Profile pictures.** HD profile picture URL per account.
- 🏢 **Business info.** Category, contact options, and external URL.

Each profile record includes username, full name, bio, follower count, following count, post count, profile picture URL, is_verified, is_business, business_category, external_url, and account creation signals.

> 💡 **Why it matters:** the official Instagram Graph API only returns data for accounts you own or manage. This Actor reads public profile data that any visitor can see and returns it as structured JSON, CSV, or Excel.
