hi! love the idea behind this, is there an upper limit on comments it can handle? Seems like I can use it on posts with a few hundred comments but our giveaway posts w a couple thousand entries, the .csv never downloads
@mandykn Hi Mandy, thanks for checking out Spatulah! At the moment, we do have a request limiter that times out after 30 seconds, and from our testing we've been able to scrape ~3k comments. We're contemplating working on an update that supports more comments but nothing solid so far, stay tuned for updates. Thanks.
@mandykn Hey Mandy! Just wanted to let you know that we recently pushed an update that allows you to scrape any number of comments. If there are too many comments for a quick response from the server, we'll send you an email with the csv attached. Hope this makes the product more useful!

Hi! I'm having a problem exporting comments. I want to run a contest in the next few weeks so I'm testing out a previous post with 2K+ comments. It's been loading for over 20 minutes and then nothing happens. Any insights? Thanks!
@arielleabraham Hi Arielle! Previously we were running into issues with handling too many comments, we've since released an update that fixes that. Hope this helps!

Hi I'm having trouble making the application run. I've tried to input every possible combination of a link to one of my post. However, i just get a loading sign and a fie is never created. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
@madison_walser Hey Madison! Previously we could only handle posts with about 1k comments, we've since released an update that should take care of that.

Hi! I am having the same issue. Got an email in about 10 minutes but only shows the last 24 comments out of 880. Tried it with another post and only exported 24 out of 220. Any idea how to fix this issue? Thanks!
Hey Everyone, We built a tool for our community managers who were sick of copying out Instagram comments into an Excel sheet to keep track of contests and what not, so we decided to make a tool that would save us that time. It's free to use, and we would love to hear any feedback you may have!
@niteshmanav Thanks! It's on the roadmap, but I don't have an exact timeline for that yet and it would still involve us overcoming a few technical hurdles

@snazzyham My post with over 1000 comments is only scraping about 450 comments. Is there a way to have it scrape all the comments?

Hope that will be fixed in the future. Until then, the hunt continues for a good comment free comment scrapper.
Pros:
The design and easy user experience are great
Cons:
However even with posts that have several hundred comments, this tool doesnt seem to scrape all of them.

Hi Ashok! Thanks for your review.
The reason it wasn't working was because of a change to Instagram's url structure, which we have since adapted to.

@snazzyham How long does it take for that email to be delivered? I got a message saying I would get the email, and it's been 12 hours. Nothing.
