I have been scraping for years collecting millions of email addresses through my software created in NodeJs and Instagram Private API, but for a few months it has been getting complicated following more and more restrictive checks on Instagram.
Given that:
- Use of PVA users.
- Use of USA proxy, 3 accounts per proxy.
- I only perform about 200 reads per day per account, extrapolating users via hashtag search.
Users last 3-4 days maximum, after which Instagram asks again for authentication, captcha check and password change. This operation done every day on hundreds of users is expensive and not very productive.
Any suggestions?
