# Instagram reel search

Use this when you only want Google-indexed Instagram reels matching a keyword or phrase, with optional date filters and pagination. Needs query. Served by ScrapeCreators.

Use this when you only want Google-indexed Instagram reels matching a keyword or phrase, with optional date filters and pagination. It returns reel media, engagement, owner, location, and audio details. Results are best-effort rather than a complete Instagram-native search. For Instagram-curated topic posts, use /v1/instagram/search/popular. For an exact hashtag across posts and reels, use /v1/instagram/search/hashtag. Pages 1 through 11 are supported; page 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-v2-instagram-reels-search",
  "input": {
    "query": "dogs",
    "date_posted": "last-week",
    "page": 1
  }
}
```

## 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).
