The More card on Home opens several sources. This article covers three of them: Instagram Search, Post Engagements and Meta Ads.

How do I open them?

  1. Go to Home.

  2. Click More.

  3. Choose Instagram Search, Post Engagements or Meta Ads.

The Home start cards, with the More card clicked and its menu open below it. The menu lists Salesforce Import, Instagram Search, Post Engagements, Meta Ads, Apify Scraper, Luma Event and Use a template. The Find leads and Import data cards are above it.

What does Instagram Search ask for?

The window is called Scrape Instagram and says "Find Instagram profiles based on keywords and email types."

  • Keywords: the hint shows e.g. "fashion influencer" "style".

  • Number of results: "default 10, max 700".

  • Language and Country: English and United States when it opens.

  • Add Enrichments: Extract Emails, ticked when the window opens, with two options. Extract Personal Emails (selected when it opens) "extracts emails like @gmail.com, @yahoo.com, etc." Extract Business Emails (Experimental) "extracts emails like @company.com, @business.com, etc."

  • Example Queries on the left: Life Coaches, Plumbers in New York, Personal Trainers, Fitness Coaches, Lawyers in London, Surgeons.

The bottom shows Estimated Cost and the buttons Create Table and Create & Run 10 rows.

The Add column item Person profile (from Instagram) is separate from this window. Its panel shows no price, and it needs your own Apify connection. Instagram runs on Apify. See Instagram integration: set up and troubleshoot.
