EasyDown MCP platform guide
Instagram Downloader MCP
Agents can submit one public Instagram post or Reel URL and receive normalized media arrays without learning separate response formats for photos, carousels, and videos.
Parse public Instagram posts and Reels through an Instagram downloader MCP that preserves every image, carousel item, video, and cover candidate returned by EasyDown.
