Get Replies to an Instagram Comment
View all Instagram Data API endpoints →Expand the reply thread under one comment. Pass code_or_url for the post plus comment_id — the pk of a comment returned by the post comments endpoint; continue with the pagination_token from the previous response. The documented response returns child_comment_count and child_comments[], where each reply carries pk, text, created_at, comment_like_count and an author user object. This is retrieval for analysis, not automated replying.

Reply metadata Each reply includes pk, text, timestamp, like count and author identity.
Paginated threads Long threads continue via the returned pagination_token.
