Frequently Asked Questions

What data can this Instagram Reel scraper obtain?

This tool can extract various publicly available Reel-related data from Instagram, including: video metadata (title, caption, duration, publish date), author profile information (name, profile URL, follower count), engagement metrics (likes, comments), content tags, language detection, and platform-specific identifiers (video shortcode, profile ID, post ID, etc.).

What formats are supported for exporting scraping results?

CoreClaw supports 8 export formats to fit your workflow:

Recommendation: Use JSON for data pipelines, CSV/XLSX for manual analysis, and JSONL for streaming large datasets.

Is the scraped data real-time?

Yes, the data obtained by this tool is 100% real-time and up-to-date. Each scraping request directly pulls the latest public data from Instagram servers, without relying on any local cache or third-party data warehouses.

How does the proxy configuration work?

When a proxy is provided, the scraper routes all requests through the specified proxy server. The format must be method://auth:password@host:port. Supported methods include http, https, and socks5. If the proxy field is left empty, requests are sent directly without using a proxy.

Can I scrape multiple reels at once?

Yes. You can enter multiple Instagram Reel URLs in a single run, and the system will process each one sequentially. For optimal performance, we recommend processing 1-10 URLs at a time.
