While this tool itself is free (only charging for Compute Units), it triggers two other Actors: Instagram Post Scraper and Instagram Comments Scraper, both of which are pay-per-result (PPR) at $2.30 per 1,000 scraped results. This means that running this Actor will result in three separate runs: - Export Instagram Comments and Posts (this Actor) – charges for CUs. - Instagram Post Scraper – price is based on the number of extracted posts. - Instagram Comments Scraper – price is based on the number of extracted comments. So even though the main Actor is free, the charges from the other triggered Actors will apply. You can monitor these runs under your account with a full breakdown of the charges per each run. Just check the Runs tab in Actors → ▷ Runs. ## ⬇️ Input To scrape Instagram comments and posts, the input for Export Instagram Comments and Posts Tool should be Instagram profiles and number of posts and comments to scrape. You can add profiles one by one or all at once. You can input data by filling out fields, using JSON, or programmatically via an API. For more details on how to configure input in JSON, see the input tab. ## ⬆️ Output sample The results will be wrapped into a dataset that you can find in the Output tab. Here's an example of the data from the input above: You can preview all the fields in Storage and Output tab and choose in which format to export Instagram comment data you’ve extracted: JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML table, or XML.
