Hello, i'm using Jarvee with a brunch of accounts, i wish to scrape from my followers list only specific-country users (in this case Indian users), it's possible to do it?
How do i do it exactly?

Thanks for the help!

I cannot speak for how to do it in Jarvee or if you can. But the way to do it is to apply a FILTER to your search and specify the location of the user.

WARNING. This is not a 100% accurate way. Most of the time you can NOT get the location of the account, ISG is very poor in their posts by country / users by country option (i.e. you cannot search for users of country X or for posts made in country Y). So you will miss lots of valid results just because the suers don't have a valid LOCATION property in their user details JSON response. But you may get some.


I just had a look at what "might" be returned, this is a full user response

The relevant bit for your needs
Code: 
    "public_phone_country_code": "1",
   "contact_phone_number": "+12122551121",
   "city_id": 108424279189115,
   "city_name": "New York, New York",
   "zip": "10011",
   "address_street": "555 W 21st Street",
   "direct_messaging": "UNKNOWN",
   "latitude": 40.7471956,
   "longitude": -74.0066421,

so it seems that the ISG response does NOT include the country even if the response does include contact details, but it appears to include the state / provide / county, so you would need to specify your FILTER to include potentially all states of the country

Thanks for your detailed response mate, that's the exact problem i'm facing: Jarvee got extensive scraping tools, but i cannot find a way to target people in EVERY PROVINCE / LOCATION in a determined country.
And this is kinda frustrating because i need to unfollow only followers from a specific country, and digging thru all the followers i have for a manual scrape will be a pita and it will take days, even if they're only 24k!
 
If you scrap directly from instagram, the user json contains a key "localCode", "countryCode" (if I remember correctly).

As I said I cannot speak for Jarvee, but we do it by allowing you to dump a list of potential matches, so for the US, you could just dump in all states. But this is something you probably need to contact their support about. They have a good reputation so should get back to you within 24 hours
