Instagram profile scraping via API

At a glance

The community member is looking to populate an Instagram profile on their website using an Apify actor. They are having trouble sending the input data JSON from their website to the actor's input, running the actor, and retrieving the results. A community member suggests referring to the Apify documentation on running actors and retrieving data via the API, and mentions that the exact JSON input format can be found by switching the actor input to JSON. The community member expresses gratitude for the help.

Useful resources
I have the following scenario:

I want to enter Instagram username handle on my website and populate the whole profile with results from apify actor. How do I do it via API? I can not figure out how to send input data JSON from my input to the actor's input, run it and get results. I'd really appreciate some help.

For exact JSOn input, switch the actor input to JSON to see the format
Thank you so much
