Scraping Problems Using Hashtag

[WizKlug]

Why does scraping from a hashtag only retrieve 100-200 profiles before logging me out? I'm aware Instagram has limits, but how can I bypass them? I've been using Growman for IG scraping, but it’s not effective. What tool should I switch to?

When using Growman, do you need to add Instagram accounts? If so, how many? The account used for scraping likely gets blocked, which is causing your issue. I use a tool called SuSocial for scraping, and it requires multiple accounts. The more accounts I add, the better the results I get.

There are issues with scraping hashtags because you need to be logged in. However, you can work around this by copying the URL of pictures and retrieving the usernames from there. If you want to scrape usernames without limitations, you can easily scrape any number of following/follower lists without problems.
