Output
Shape of the run’s result, checked against 2 real answers:
{ profile: { bio, link, name, posts, avatar, hearts, language, username, avatar_hd, followers, following, created_at, is_verified }, search_metadata: { id, status, html_url, json_url, created_at, request_url, total_time_taken, parsing_time_taken, request_time_taken }, search_parameters: { engine, username } }
Run it
Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.
Example input with placeholder values:

-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
