Scrappa Get API key

Instagram Audio Reels

Retrieve the public Instagram reels that use a given audio track, with pagination support. The audio_id is the numeric id from the public audio page URL (instagram.com/reels/audio/{audio_id}/). Returns reel details including video URLs, captions, play counts, and engagement metrics. Note: Instagram strips the track title/artist metadata for logged-out requests, so this endpoint returns the reels only. A completed lookup costs one credit, including a definitive not-found result, because every lookup uses costly dedicated Instagram proxies.
