Overview

Instagram Story Highlights fetches public story highlight albums for an Instagram profile by handle or numeric user ID. Use it to map a brand or creator's saved story collections, copy highlight IDs, and decide which albums need deeper story-item review.

Use cases

  • Find the public highlight albums on a brand or creator profile before reviewing saved stories.
  • Collect highlight IDs, titles, cover images, owners, and item counts for profile research.
  • Choose which highlight IDs to open with Instagram Highlight Details.

Input tips

  • Enter an Instagram handle such as canva or @canva when you do not have the numeric user ID.
  • Use a numeric Instagram user ID when another Instagram lookup has already returned one.
  • Provide either handle or user ID; one is required.
  • Use Instagram Highlight Details after this AI Tool returns a highlight ID.

Expected output

The AI Tool returns lookup status, the source handle or user ID, normalized story highlight albums, source messages, normalization notes, recovered fields, and cost metadata. Highlight rows can include ID, title, cover image URL, owner profile summary, item count, story items when returned, and additional recovered fields. The output view shows copyable IDs, cover tiles, total highlight and item counts, profile link, and downloadable JSON.

Caveats

  • Only public, accessible Instagram profile data can return highlight albums.
  • Profiles with no public highlights can return a successful empty list.
  • Highlights and Highlight Details are not paginated in the tested shapes.
  • This AI Tool discovers highlight IDs; use Instagram Highlight Details for story photos and videos.
  • Cover images, titles, item counts, owners, and availability can change after the run.
