Instagram Profile Posts Full API
Scrape Instagram Profile Posts Full data with one API call. Returns a creator's recent posts with full engagement — views, likes, comments, AND the per-post share count — in a single call. ScrapeCreators' standard /profile/posts endpoint returns views/likes/comments but leaves engagement.shares null (its upstream has no per-post reshare count); this composite fans out to a second mobile source that exposes the share number and merges it back onto each item by post id. The ScrapeCreators leg is critical (its failure refunds the full call); the shares leg is best-effort (on failure the items still return with shares null and 4 of the 5 credits are refunded, so you pay the standard 1-credit list price). shares_coverage reports the fraction of returned items that received a real share number, and legs[] shows each leg's status. Paginate with next_cursor. Flat 5 credits when both legs succeed.
