Scrape Creators API / Comments

Retrieves comments on a public Instagram post or reel. Each comment includes the comment text, creation timestamp, reply count when Instagram provides it, and commenter details such as username, user ID, verification status, and profile picture URL. childcommentcount can be null when Instagram does not expose the count publicly. Set includereplies=true to fetch the first page of replies for every returned comment. This adds replies, repliescursor, and hasmorereplies to each comment. This option always costs 15 credits because Scrape Creators makes a separate Instagram replies request for every comment in the response. It is possible that no replies are returned, but you will still be charged 15 credits because those reply lookups were performed. This option is much slower than a normal comments request and may time out at 29 seconds. Supports cursor-based pagination to load additional comment pages.
