Returns the profile plus its latest 12 posts in one call. Use it instead of calling profile and profile/posts separately; the profile still comes back if posts cannot be fetched.
Beta. A composite: data.profile is a schema-2 Profile and data.posts[].post are schema-2 Posts, and the posts page with cursor. The rest of data is the source's own structure under our naming rules (snake_case keys, string ids). Fields outside the profile and posts may change. See Schema 2.
50 credits per call.
Paginates by cursor: see Pagination.
Authorization
apiKey Your key from the dashboard. It starts with isk_.

How many of the fetched recent posts to return and compute the metrics over (1-100, default 25).
Pass a prior response's posts_cursor to read the next page of posts.
Set to 1 to get the price of this call without making it: data.dry_run carries credits_min and credits_max. Nothing is charged.
