Instagram Reels Search API

Instagram Reels Search

Search public Instagram Reels. Results are normalized and billed by the actual saved record count.

Use with MCP

Use the JSON request body above as the nested input object for socq_execute, or pass the same fields directly to the typed tool. Typed tools also accept _wait_seconds, _result_limit, and _idempotency_key.
A successful submission returns a task_id. Continue with socq_get_task until the task succeeds, then read normalized records from results.items.
See MCP quickstart for the complete submission and polling flow.

Result Fields

Task results use the stable SocQ fields below. Source-specific field names and formats are normalized without inferring or enriching values that the source did not provide. To request a smaller field set, use fields for MCP queries, _result_fields for typed tools, or --result-fields in the CLI. Declared fields remain present when their value is null.
