Step 1: Find the Location ID

步骤1：查找地点ID

Instagram location tags use a numeric location ID, not a text name. To find it:
  1. Search for the location on Instagram's mobile app
  2. Open the location page — the URL format is: 
    instagram.com/explore/locations/[LOCATION_ID]/[location-name]/
  3. Copy the numeric 
    LOCATION_ID
Alternatively, ask the user for the full Instagram location URL and extract the ID from it.
If the user only has a name (e.g., "Eiffel Tower Paris"): Run a brief Google search for 
site:instagram.com/explore/locations "[venue name]"
to find the location page URL and extract the ID.
Instagram地点标签使用数字地点ID，而非文本名称。查找方法：
  1. 在Instagram移动应用中搜索该地点
  2. 打开地点页面——URL格式为：
    instagram.com/explore/locations/[LOCATION_ID]/[location-name]/
  3. 复制数字形式的
    LOCATION_ID
或者，向用户索要完整的Instagram地点URL，并从中提取ID。
如果用户只有地点名称（例如："Eiffel Tower Paris"）： 运行Google搜索，关键词为
site:instagram.com/explore/locations "[venue name]"
，找到地点页面URL并提取ID。

Step 2: Run the Actor

步骤2：运行Actor

Recommended — run_actor.js (handles waiting, output, and file saving automatically):
bash
undefined
推荐方式——使用run_actor.js（自动处理等待、输出和文件保存）：
bash
undefined

保存为JSON文件

node scripts/run_actor.js
--actor "apidojo~instagram-location-scraper"
--input '{"param": "value"}'
--output YYYY-MM-DD_results.json --format json
> `APIFY_TOKEN` must be set in environment or `.env` file.

**If Apify MCP is available:**
Tool: apify:run-actor Actor: "apidojo~instagram-location-scraper" Input: { "locationIds": ["[LOCATION_ID]"], "maxItems": 100 }

**REST API fallback:**
```bash
curl -X POST \
  "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apidojo~instagram-location-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "locationIds": ["[LOCATION_ID]"],
    "maxItems": 100
  }'
Wait for 
SUCCEEDED
. Fetch results.
node scripts/run_actor.js
--actor "apidojo~instagram-location-scraper"
--input '{"param": "value"}'
--output YYYY-MM-DD_results.json --format json
> 必须在环境变量或`.env`文件中设置`APIFY_TOKEN`。

**如果Apify MCP可用：**
工具: apify:run-actor Actor: "apidojo~instagram-location-scraper" 输入: { "locationIds": ["[LOCATION_ID]"], "maxItems": 100 }

**REST API备选方案：**
```bash
curl -X POST \
  "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apidojo~instagram-location-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "locationIds": ["[LOCATION_ID]"],
    "maxItems": 100
  }'
等待任务状态变为
SUCCEEDED
，然后获取结果。

Step 3: Filter Posts

步骤3：筛选帖子

From dataset, extract per post:
  • url
    — link to the post
  • caption
    — post text
  • ownerUsername
    — creator's handle
  • likesCount
    — post likes
  • commentsCount
    — post comments
  • timestamp
    — when posted
  • isVideo
    — true/false (Reels vs. photo)
Filter options (ask user which apply):
  • Date range — only recent posts (e.g., last 90 days)
  • Min likes — surface higher-quality posts (e.g., ≥50 likes)
  • Min followers of poster — surface posts by creators with real audiences
从数据集中提取每个帖子的以下信息：
  • url
    — 帖子链接
  • caption
    — 帖子文案
  • ownerUsername
    — 创作者账号
  • likesCount
    — 帖子点赞数
  • commentsCount
    — 帖子评论数
  • timestamp
    — 发布时间
  • isVideo
    — 布尔值（Reels短视频/照片）
筛选选项（询问用户适用哪些）：
  • 日期范围 — 仅保留近期帖子（例如：过去90天）
  • 最低点赞数 — 筛选出高质量帖子（例如：≥50个点赞）
  • 发帖者最低粉丝数 — 筛选出拥有真实受众的创作者发布的帖子

Step 4: Identify Top Content and Creators

步骤4：识别顶级内容和创作者

Rank posts by likes + comments. Identify the top 10 posts for potential repost/feature.
For creators with multiple posts at the location, they're genuine fans — flag these for influencer outreach.
Calculate: unique creators vs. total posts (gives a repeat-visitor signal).
按点赞数+评论数对帖子排序，选出前10个帖子作为潜在转发/推荐内容。
对于在该地点发布过多篇帖子的创作者，他们是真实粉丝——标记这些创作者用于网红合作 outreach。
计算：独特创作者数量 vs 总帖子数（可反映重复访客的信号）。

Step 5: Format Report

步骤5：格式化报告

Troubleshooting

故障排除

Location ID not found: Some small venues aren't indexed as Instagram locations. Try a nearby landmark or the city as a backup. Very few posts: Low-traffic venues may have limited location-tagged posts. Lower the min-likes filter. Posts from wrong location: Instagram location matching can be imprecise for similarly-named venues. Review posts manually for the top results.
找不到地点ID： 一些小型场所未被Instagram收录为地点。可以尝试附近的地标或城市作为替代。 帖子数量极少： 人流量低的场所可能带有地点标签的帖子有限。降低最低点赞数筛选条件。 帖子来自错误地点： 对于名称相似的场所，Instagram的地点匹配可能不够精确。手动查看顶级结果的帖子进行确认。
