## Run this action

Use the TypeScript SDK for one call. Use `ctx.tools.execute(...)` inside a Play for durable calls, scheduled calls, or CSV processing.

```ts theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
import { Deepline } from 'deepline';

const deepline = await Deepline.connect();
const result = await deepline.tools.execute(
  'scrapecreators_instagram_user_posts',
  {
    "handle": "example"
  },
);

console.log(result.toolResponse.raw);
```

### CLI

```bash theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
deepline tools execute scrapecreators_instagram_user_posts --input '{
  "handle": "example"
}' --json
```

## Example response

The static output schema lacks the details for a reliable example. Use `deepline describe scrapecreators_instagram_user_posts --json` for the complete live contract.

## Input reference

Returns a paginated feed of a user's public Instagram posts, including reels, photos, videos, and carousels. Each item includes media type, shortcode, caption text, like count, comment count, play count, video URLs, image URLs, and tagged users. Play counts reflect Instagram-only views and exclude cross-posted Facebook views. Supports cursor-based pagination via next\_max\_id for scrolling through the full timeline.

| `payload.handle` | `string` | Yes | — | Instagram handle |
| `payload.next_max_id` | `string` | No | — | Cursor to get next page of results. |
| `payload.trim` | `boolean` | No | — | Set to true to get a trimmed response |
