Start with one request

Use a cookie jar with command-line clients so you can track the job without an API key.

curl -i -X POST https://igget.ir/api/v1/extract \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -c igget.cookies \
  -d '{"url":"https://www.instagram.com/reel/ABC123/"}'

JavaScript

const response = await fetch("https://igget.ir/api/v1/extract", {
  method: "POST",
  credentials: "include",
  headers: { "content-type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify({ url: instagramUrl }),
});

const job = await response.json();
// Poll GET /extract/{job.id} until stage is "ready" or "failed".

∞

Free fair-use limits

Up to 10 extraction requests per minute and 10 download requests per day for an anonymous API session. If a limit is reached, the API returns 429 and a Retry-After header.

↗

Public content only

IGGet supports public Instagram posts, reels, reels URLs, and TV links. Stories and private content are not supported.

◌

Keep the session cookie

The API sets a short-lived session cookie automatically so only your client can read its jobs. Browsers should send requests with credentials: "include"; curl should use -c and -b.
