Hey team! Quick question — is there any way to filter and pull only the most recent posts? Like, from the past week, past 3 days, or something similar? I’ve hit a wall with this. It really feels like there’s no such option… or am I missing something?

Hi!

You can use a relative or absolute date https://apify.com/apify/instagram-scraper as the JSON input values. In this actor, the date filter is just not exposed in the visual input form.

I will close the issue now, but if there is anything else we can help with, please let us know.

Alexey, thank you for answering, you're helping a lot.

Am I right, that, based on your prev comments (https://console.apify.com/organization/ZucajKprADkcWNOvh/actors/xMc5Ga1oCONPmWJIa/issues/dwBFyEaPkPAhIa6jx / https://console.apify.com/organization/ZucajKprADkcWNOvh/actors/xMc5Ga1oCONPmWJIa/issues/CQu1C3TydvI1APO2j / https://console.apify.com/organization/ZucajKprADkcWNOvh/actors/xMc5Ga1oCONPmWJIa/issues/gZT8sBAQal1i0tSA0 / https://console.apify.com/organization/ZucajKprADkcWNOvh/actors/xMc5Ga1oCONPmWJIa/issues/DyhXWOXf8YVPOoNev) exactly for reels it's kind of impossible? Only 1 way to do it for posts?

But for posts one https://apify.com/apify/instagram-scraper it doesnt gather reels, or it gathers everything? Sorry if it's a stupid question, just trying to understand

Internally input onlyPostsNewerThan: <VALUE> applied to posts and reels. Visually, it is exposed in the input form in the main IG Scraper, but not in the other scrapers, just to keep the input simpler.

The easiest way is to add a JSON input named onlyPostsNewerThan to this actor.

Posts are a mix of images, slideshows, and reels ("Feed" tab in Instagram profile)

Hope it helps!
