Frequently asked questions
How do I find Instagram Reels that use the same piece of music?
First use this endpoint to find the target audio by song title or artist and confirm its audio_canonical_id (you can verify it with the audio-detail endpoint); then pass it to the audio-posts endpoint to page through the public Reels using that sound.
