actor-routing

# Apify Actor Routing ## Core Rule Actor IDs use tilde format: `username~actor-name` (not slash). All IDs in the routing table below are already in the correct format. Prefer `apify`-tier actors. Use `community`-tier only when no `apify` actor covers the task. Never call `apify_discover` in query mode for tasks listed in the routing table below — use the exact actor ID directly with `apify_start`. Still call `apify_discover({"actor_id": "..."})` first if you haven't run that actor before, or need its input schema. ## Actor Routing Table ## Instagram | Actor | Tier | Best for | |-------|------|----------| | apify~instagram-scraper | apify | all Instagram data | | apify~instagram-profile-scraper | apify | profiles, followers, bio | | apify~instagram-post-scraper | apify | posts, engagement metrics | | apify~instagram-comment-scraper | apify | post and reel comments | | apify~instagram-hashtag-scraper | apify | posts by hashtag | | apify~instagram-hashtag-analytics-scraper | apify | hashtag metrics, trends | | apify~instagram-reel-scraper | apify | reels, transcripts, engagement | | apify~instagram-api-scraper | apify | API-based, no login | | apify~instagram-search-scraper | apify | search users, places | | apify~instagram-tagged-scraper | apify | tagged/mentioned posts | | apify~instagram-topic-scraper | apify | posts by topic | | apify~instagram-followers-count-scraper | apify | follower count tracking | | apify~export-instagram-comments-posts | apify | bulk posts + comments | ##
