Instagram User reels logged in API
List an Instagram account's reels by handle as a logged-in Instagram viewer sees them, with cursor pagination: everything instagram.user_reels returns plus saves, reposts, the caption-track URL and, for reels cross-posted to Facebook, the Facebook views, likes and comments. Views, likes and comments are Instagram-only; the Facebook figures are reported separately.

}Full parameter and response reference - every field, type, and example for this endpoint.

Request body
JSON, posted to this endpoint.
- cursorstring
Pagination cursor (max_id) from a previous response's nextCursor.
- handlestring
nasa
Instagram handle.
- requireFieldsarray
Optional; omit it and routing is unchanged, with the cheapest source serving. Name the output fields this request must be able to return, for example `locationName`, and it is served only by a source that returns every one of them. Fields you do not name are still returned whenever the serving source has them. This can raise your price: when the cheapest source cannot return a named field, a dearer source serves, and you are quoted and charged its price. A named field can still be absent on a reel that genuinely lacks it. Naming a combination that no single source returns together is refused as invalid input, with no charge.
- userIdstring
Instagram user id (faster than handle when known).
