SocQ turns public profiles, posts, videos, comments, search results, transcripts, and engagement signals into structured records your applications can use. Authenticate with one API key, submit a collection task, and retrieve normalized results through a consistent REST workflow.

Explore the live API Catalog for current endpoint and platform availability.

1. Call a data collection endpoint with your Bearer API key.
2. Store the returned task_id. New tasks start in the queued state.
3. Query GET /v1/tasks/{task_id} as the task moves through queued, running, succeeded, or failed.
4. After success, read normalized records from results.items and continue with results.next_cursor when another page is available.
5. Add callback_url when you need a completion notification. Callback delivery is best-effort, so polling remains the fallback.
6. Download compressed raw JSONL data from GET /v1/tasks/{task_id}/files when you need the source records in bulk.

Create an API key, then submit an Instagram profile search:

curl -X POST "https://api.socq.ai/v1/instagram/search" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SOCQ_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "query": "sustainable travel",
    "results_limit": 25
  }'

# Save task_id from the submit response, then query the task.
curl "https://api.socq.ai/v1/tasks/$TASK_ID?limit=50" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SOCQ_API_KEY"

Successful task responses contain normalized records in data.results.items. Pass data.results.next_cursor back as the cursor query parameter to read the next page.

SocQ is built for public data workflows. It is not an official API of the social platforms represented in its catalog and does not provide access to private account data.

SocQAPI/socq-examples is the canonical directory for all 32 focused API repositories.

Each repository keeps API keys server-side, implements the complete asynchronous task and pagination flow, and uses synthetic fixtures instead of customer data.
