OP 24 July, 2024 - 08:20 AM
(This post was last modified: 24 July, 2024 - 08:21 AM by ism52. Edited 1 time in total.)
I needed to collect usernames, emails, and phone numbers from an Instagram page, so I created a scraper. It successfully captured up to 500 leads before the endpoint that retrieves user data was temporarily blocked. After a few hours, the endpoint was unblocked, and I continued scraping data from 10,000 users. By adjusting the "cursor" variable, you can start from where you left off.
Steps:
1 - Install Python 3
2 - Install Pip
3 - pip install InstaGPy
4 - Create folder "Followers"
5 - Edit your main.py
This script is very short and easy to adapt to your needs. Currently, it saves all user data in the "Followers" folder.

This script really pulls a lot of data. Additionally, the script could theoretically work with multiple Instagram accounts. You just need to assign an IP to each one using a service like LunaProxy.
