Automate Instagram profile data export to Google Sheets

This automation template allows users to scrape comprehensive Instagram profile data using the Apify platform, and automatically export the results into a Google Sheets spreadsheet for analysis.

It is designed to run on a schedule, processing a list of usernames by calling the Apify API, appending the scraped data to a Google Sheet, and marking the usernames as processed. The automation integrates with Google Sheets and the Apify actor, providing a streamlined way to gather and organize Instagram profile information without manual intervention.

How Latenode estimates time and cost

Latenode bills workflow runs in credits: 1 credit = 30 seconds of processing. Minimum charge per run depends on your plan. Plug-and-Play (PnP) AI nodes are billed separately—each PnP token is $1 USD, charged pay-as-you-go at vendor cost plus a small processing fee, with no API keys required.
