Effortless Instagram Analysis Workflow with Apify & Supabase

Effortless Instagram Analysis Workflow with Apify & Supabase

Unlock the power of Instagram insights with our cutting-edge workflow designed to deliver comprehensive analysis with minimal effort. Seamlessly integrated with Apify and Supabase, this solution empowers you to receive detailed reports on Instagram activity, content strategy, and engagement metrics, all through a streamlined process.

What this workflow does

• Begins with a POST webhook request that inputs an Instagram username.
• Checks Supabase's reports table for any recent analysis conducted within the past 24 hours for the specified username.
• If no recent data is found, the workflow activates the Apify Instagram Scraper actor to retrieve the most recent 5 posts of the account.
• Processes and cleanses the collected post data, preparing it in a structured JSON format.
• Sends this refined data to Google Gemini, where it generates three targeted sub-reports: niche analysis and posting frequency, content strategy evaluation, and engagement/action insights.
• Compiles these insights into a cohesive analysis_report object and updates or inserts it back into Supabase, ensuring up-to-date information is readily accessible.
