# Instagram hashtag post search

Use this when you know the exact hashtag and want Google-indexed public Instagram posts or reels, optional date filters, and pagination. Needs hashtag. Served by ScrapeCreators.

Use this when you know the exact hashtag and want Google-indexed public Instagram posts or reels, optional date filters, and pagination. It returns post details such as caption, engagement, owner, and post time. Results are best-effort and not a complete Instagram-native hashtag feed. For an Instagram-curated topic page with generated context and suggested terms, use /v1/instagram/search/popular. Pass media_type=reels to only return reels. Cursors are limited to pages 1 through 11; cursor 12 or greater returns a 400 response.

## Published example

This is the provider tool’s published example. Replace example values with the user’s requested inputs, respecting the schema; do not execute an example merely to test a connection.


```json
{
  "tool_id": "scrapecreators/get-v1-instagram-search-hashtag",
  "input": {
    "hashtag": "makeup",
    "date_posted": "last-week",

  }
}
```

## Execute and retrieve

Inspect again before execution, explain the price and obtain the required authority. Use MCP run_tool or POST /v1/run with this tool ID, valid input and an idempotency key. Save the returned run ID and follow the actual state. If Agentik answers that the tool is temporarily unavailable, do not retry it blindly; use discovery to propose an alternative.

A partial or uncertain result can still have consumed provider resources. Consult [billing](/docs/billing.md), [idempotency](/docs/idempotency.md) and [asynchronous results](/docs/async.md).
