AI-generatedSummary
Fetch a user profile from a specified social media platform
Inputs
- platform (required) — The social media platform to query profiles from. Select the platform matching the target account's network; defaults to Instagram if not specified.
- username (required) — The handle or identifier of the profile to retrieve. Provided as a plain string; required for the API request.
- requestOptions — Optional collection of request-level settings. Includes Batching configuration with Items per Batch (batchSize; -1 disables batching, 0 treats as 1) and Batch Interval (batchInterval in ms; 0 disables throttling).
Output shape
The operation performs a GET request to the platform's profile endpoint (/profiles/{{username}}) with the selected platform passed as a query parameter. Returns the profile data exposed by the ScrapeCreators API for the given username and platform combination.
Side effects are limited to the API request; no persistent state is modified within the n8n workflow.
Examples
Example 1: Retrieve a public Instagram profile by username
Set platform to 'instagram' and username to the desired handle (e.g., 'nexusmedia'). The node will issue a GET to /profiles/{{username}} with platform=instagram in the query string.
