2 things to look at

- 4 stars4 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

What You Can Search
| Tool | What It Does |
|---|---|
getInstagramPostsByKeywords | Search posts & reels by keywords |
getInstagramUsersByKeywords | Find users posting about a topic |
getInstagramUser | Look up a specific profile |
searchInstagramUsers | Find accounts by display name |
getInstagramPostsByAuthor | Get a user's post history |
Quick Examples
Search Posts & Reels
mcporter call xpoz.getInstagramPostsByKeywords \
query="sustainable fashion" \
startDate=2026-01-01 \
limit=100
# Poll for results:
mcporter call xpoz.checkOperationStatus operationId=op_abc123
Xpoz indexes both captions and video subtitles — so you can find reels by what people say, not just what they type.
Find Influencers by Topic
mcporter call xpoz.getInstagramUsersByKeywords \
query="fitness transformation OR workout routine" \
limit=200
Look Up a Profile
mcporter call xpoz.getInstagramUser \
identifier=natgeo \
identifierType=username
Search by Display Name
mcporter call xpoz.searchInstagramUsers query="National Geographic" limit=20
Boolean Queries
mcporter call xpoz.getInstagramPostsByKeywords \
query="(vegan OR plant-based) AND recipe NOT sponsored"
CSV Export
Every search generates a full export. Poll the dataDumpExportOperationId for a CSV download URL (up to 64K rows).
Why Not Use the Instagram API Directly?
| Instagram Graph API | Xpoz Instagram Search | |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | Meta developer account + app review | One-click Xpoz auth |
| Keyword search | ❌ Not available | ✅ Full-text + subtitles |
| Find influencers | Only if you know their username | Search by topic/content |
| Reels content | Metadata only | Captions + spoken words |
| Export | Manual pagination | One-click CSV |
| Cost | Free but painful setup | Free tier available |
The Instagram Graph API doesn't support keyword search at all. Xpoz fills that gap.
