Instagram Scraper — questions
Answers built from our own checks of this server.
What can Instagram Scraper do?
It exposes 40 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_additional_info, get_basic_engagement, get_business, get_comments, get_followers, get_followings and 34 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README.
How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is Instagram Scraper mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around posts, stories and info. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is Instagram Scraper working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 280 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Instagram Scraper?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Instagram Scraper need an API key?
No. Instagram Scraper completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 40 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Instagram Scraper?
It answers our handshake in 280 ms on average, which is faster than 60% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
