Overview

Extracts the usernames of Instagram users who have posted content using any hashtag you specify. Use this data to identify potential collaborators, customers, or community members in any niche.

This tool helps you find people on Instagram who are actively posting about a specific topic, brand, or interest. By providing a hashtag, you can gather a list of the usernames of accounts that have used it. This is a direct way to identify engaged users for influencer marketing, lead generation, or community building. ### How it Works You provide a hashtag (e.g., `sustainablefashion`) and specify how many recent posts you want to check. The tool then browses Instagram on your behalf, collecting the username from each post that uses your target hashtag. To access Instagram, you must provide your account's session cookies. This allows the tool to operate as if you were logged in, respecting Instagram's standard browsing mechanisms. ### Data Output While the direct API response only confirms if the run encountered an error, the primary output is a dataset file containing the usernames of the posters. This file is what you'll download and use for your marketing or research campaigns. It provides a clean list of people to contact, follow, or analyze further.
