Search Instagram accounts
Find Instagram accounts by a keyword: each account's username, name and link, the most relevant first, one page. The search answers from a search index, so it gives no counts: call instagram/profile with a username for the whole account. Use this to find creators and brands when you do not have a username.
Costs 3 credits, whether the answer is fetched or served from cache. A failed call is refunded automatically.
