Frequently Asked Questions
How do I scrape Instagram profile data into Google Sheets?
Install the Unlimited Sheets add-on from the Google Workspace Marketplace, then use the =SCRAPE_INSTAGRAM() formula with a username and the data field you want (e.g., "followers", "bio"). The data appears directly in your cell.
Is it legal to scrape Instagram profile data?
Scraping publicly available profile information for personal or business analysis is a common practice. Unlimited Sheets accesses only public-facing profile data. Always review Instagram's Terms of Service and consult legal advice for your specific use case.
Can I scrape private Instagram profiles?
No. The scraper only works with public Instagram profiles. Private profiles restrict access to their data, so the formula will not return follower counts, bios, or other details for accounts that have enabled privacy settings.
How many Instagram profiles can I scrape at once?
Pro plans include 1,000 scraper credits per month and Business plans include 10,000 credits. Each profile data request uses one credit. You can scrape hundreds of usernames in a single sheet by listing them in a column and applying the formula.
How often is the Instagram profile data refreshed?
Data is fetched in real time each time the formula is evaluated. You can trigger a refresh by recalculating the sheet or re-running the formula. Cached results may be served for recently fetched profiles to optimize credit usage.
