Note: Example from a live GET for id 166263 (April 2026). download_audio_url and thumbnail_url are presigned S3 URLs that expire. download_video_url matches the Instagram post URL here—not a direct MP4. When a hosted video file exists, this field may point to a CDN instead; always inspect the URL scheme before downloading. duration may be null while duration_seconds is set. transcription_segments and transcription_words may be empty. raw_metadata may be present as a large JSON string and is omitted from this sample.
