# Export Instagram comments to CSV

Instagram CSVs power sentiment sheets and influencer reporting. Strip igsh query params from the URL first — CommentHunter also normalizes them.

## Reels and posts

Both URL types work. Private accounts cannot be exported. Use a comment cap on viral Reels.

## FAQ

### Will this export Instagram DMs?
