Summary

Searches Instagram for a profile matching an account name, @handle, or profile URL, using the Captapi API. It can use the shared 24-hour cache when enabled.

Inputs

  • Query (required) — Account name, @handle, or profile URL to resolve; must be at least 2 characters. This is not a niche keyword search.
  • Cache — Whether to serve a cached result when available. The UI description says the default is false, while its help text says the default is true; cache hits cost 0 credits.

Output shape

A single profile search result.

The provided source pack contains only signatures, so the runtime response fields and exact return shape cannot be confirmed.

Examples

Example 1: Use when you have an Instagram account name, handle, or URL and want to resolve it to a profile.

Set Query to the account identifier. Enable Cache to use a cached result when available.
