Common jobs

Choose a job, follow the calls

Each step’s curl, parameters and price are generated from the endpoint registry, and each step is labelled live only when real traffic has proven it.

Before you paste

Replace the key and connect each step

Every request is a GET with your key in the x-api-key header and one envelope back — data, credits_used, request_id. Example values below are the registry’s documented examples, not identifiers returned by your earlier calls. Replace monitor, post, advertiser and company ids with the real values from the preceding response. Review previews before running create or confirmed run examples: they can spend credits and start schedules. Confirmed failed collection is uncharged or refunded; pending reconciliation can report an unknown charge. Successful retrievals may cost credits even when filters keep nothing.

Track a creator’s follower count each day

every step live · proven1 credit summed catalogue credits (previews excluded; optional repeats, variable charges and scheduled runs need an estimate)

Find Instagram reels and learn about their creators

every step live · proven12 credits summed catalogue credits (previews excluded; optional repeats, variable charges and scheduled runs need an estimate)

Find LinkedIn posts and inspect their authors

every step live · proven10 credits summed catalogue credits (previews excluded; optional repeats, variable charges and scheduled runs need an estimate)
