INSTAGRAM API

Transcript

Retrieve transcript from Instagram with a single API request.

GET/api/data/v2/instagram/media/transcript
1credit base costZero-credit cache supported

Request parameters

Up to 1 credit

Instagram post or reel URL

If we have a response in the cache that is this many days old or newer, return the cached response (0 credits, with "cached": true and a "cached_at" timestamp). Otherwise, scrape a live result (1 credit). [See the Caching page for details.]

Try in the console

Live requests use your prepaid balance. Cached responses cost zero where supported.

curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://fetchgoblin.com/api/data/v2/instagram/media/transcript' \
  --header 'x-api-key: YOUR_FETCHGOBLIN_API_KEY'
