Step-by-step: Get the accounts that liked an Instagram post

GET
/v1/instagram/post/likers

Returns up to about 2,000 of the accounts that liked a post, each with username, display name, avatar, and verification status, plus the full like count, in one call with no further pages.

Use it to see who liked a post. A post with a few hundred likes comes back whole; past that, expect about 1,000 to 2,000 likers however many likes it has (999 of 5,967 and 1,999 of 1,309,613 in our tests), and fewer on an older post (737 of 1,390,071).

50 credits per call.
