# getInstagramPostInteractingUsers

Get USER PROFILES of people who interacted with an Instagram post. Returns full user data (bio, followerCount, followingCount, etc.). RETURNS USER PROFILES: id, username, fullName, biography, followerCount, followingCount, isVerified, profilePicUrl. Use for analyzing WHO engaged with a post. NOT FOR COMMENT TEXT: To read the actual comment content (what people wrote), use getInstagramCommentsByPostId instead. INTERACTION TYPES: "commenters" (users who commented), "likers" (users who liked). WHEN TO USE THIS TOOL: Analyzing commenters/likers demographics, finding influencers who engaged, building audience profiles, network analysis of who interacts with posts. WHEN TO USE getInstagramCommentsByPostId: Reading comment text, sentiment analysis of what was said, analyzing discussion content. FAST (default, omit responseType or responseType="fast"): Returns up to 300 results directly (use limit param to reduce, e.g. limit=5). Auto API fallback for commenters when stale. PAGING (responseType="paging"): Async paginated results (1000 users per page with default fields), returns operationId - IMMEDIATELY call checkOperationStatus to get results. CSV export included via dataDumpExportOperationId. Supports pageNumber/tableName for subsequent pages. Optional fields (default: ["id", "username", "fullName"]). Available: biography, isPrivate, isVerified, followerCount, followingCount, mediaCount, profilePicUrl. This is a safe, read-only tool for analyzing searchable information. TRIAL ACCESS: Get a free trial token by sending POST https://api.xpoz.ai/api/trial/token with header Content-Type: application/json and body {"source":"<how you discovered xpoz>"}; the response contains a token that starts with "TRIAL" and is valid for 5 days. Use it as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Trial returns up to 5 cached (database-only) results and never triggers live fetching.
