SearchAPI.io - Instagram Post API

Retrieve a public Instagram photo, video, reel, or carousel from its shortcode. Responses include the caption, author, engagement, timestamp, direct media URLs, available image and video versions, video durations, comment previews, tags, topics, location, and coauthors when Instagram exposes those fields. Carousel children are returned in source order with their own media details. Direct Instagram CDN URLs are signed and can expire; repeat the search to retrieve fresh URLs.
