How to Scrape Instagram Reels into n8n

Extract reels data from Instagram and send to n8n automatically

Step-by-step guide

1

Choose the Instagram Reels scraper

Navigate to the Instagram Reels scraper in Scrapernode. Select "Fresh Scrape" for real-time data or "Quick Lookup" for pre-collected records. Each record costs 1 credit.

2

Set up your n8n connection

Install the Scrapernode community node from the n8n node library, or use the generic Webhook trigger node with your Scrapernode webhook URL. Configure the workflow to process incoming scraper data.

3

Provide your Instagram input URLs

Paste the Instagram URLs you want to scrape — one per line, or upload a CSV. Scrapernode accepts direct profile links, search result URLs, and content pages.

4

Launch the scraping job

Click "Start Extraction" to begin. Scrapernode handles proxy rotation, rate limiting, and anti-bot detection automatically. Jobs typically complete in under 60 seconds per batch.

5

Receive data in n8n

When the job completes, Scrapernode sends the full results to your n8n workflow. Each record includes 27 fields like url, user_posted, description, hashtags. Route the data to any downstream app — CRMs, databases, email tools, and more.
