Find Instagram location IDs by place name or GPS coordinates - get the numeric location ID, Facebook Places ID, address, and coordinates for any place.
A location-resolution connector that finds numeric Instagram location identifiers for places by name, keyword, or GPS coordinates and returns structured location metadata. It resolves each place to an Instagram location ID and associated identifiers from place databases, plus textual place names and address components, latitude/longitude coordinates, and a direct link to the Instagram location page. Optional enrichment fetches business metadata such as category, phone number, website, current open status, and full weekly opening hours. Designed for bulk, deduplicated lookup of many places to produce one structured record per found location for geo-analysis, place-based monitoring, and contact-enrichment workflows.

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
queries | array | optional | Place names or keywords to search for (e.g. "times square", "bondi beach", "coffee shop brooklyn"). Each query returns up to ~30 matching Instagram locations with their location IDs. Provide this, coordinates, or both. |
coordinates | array | optional | GPS coordinate pairs as "latitude,longitude" strings (e.g. "40.7580,-73.9855"). Each pair returns nearby places. Note: coordinate results often lack a numeric Instagram location ID - keyword search is the reliable way to get one. Provide this, queries, or both. |
enrich | boolean | optional | Fetch full details (category, phone, website, opening hours) for every found location that has an Instagram location ID. Costs one extra request per enriched location. |
maxItems | integer | optional | Maximum number of locations to output across all queries and coordinates. Set 0 for unlimited. Capped at 100 per call. |
