Bulk Instagram Reels views checker: views for a whole list of Reel links in one table
- Price
- Free plan: 100 credits, no card. About 2 credits per Instagram link (1 per TikTok or YouTube link), plus a few for the written summary; the form shows the estimate for your list before you run it. The 12-link example used 25 credits.
- What you get
- Your own table with the stats added as new columns, or one row per link if you paste a plain list: views, likes, comments, engagement rate ((likes + comments) ÷ views), payout at your rate per 1,000 views, a status, and a note for links that could not be read or repeat an earlier row. Excel or CSV download, optional views-only columns, and a short summary.
- Coverage
- Public Instagram Reels and posts: /reel/, /reels/, /p/ and /tv/ links, links with the account name in them and instagr.am links; tracking parameters such as ?igsh= or ?utm_source= are removed. TikTok and YouTube Shorts links in the same list work too. Up to 300 links per run. Shares, saves, reach and watch time are not public on Instagram, and private or deleted Reels cannot be read.
- Time to report
- Usually 1–2 minutes.
- Account
- Sign-in with Google required to run it. You can read the example and fill in the form without an account.
How do I add the views of a list of Instagram Reels to my spreadsheet?
Upload the sheet to the form or paste its cells, and add your rate per 1,000 views if you pay per view. Nolyn reads each Reel's public view count and gives you the same table back with views, likes, comments, engagement and payout in new columns, as Excel or CSV. In a run on November 3, 2026, 12 links (Gymshark and Rare Beauty Reels, a carousel post and a repeated Reel) came back as 10 Reels with 14,584,573 views and $29,169.14 at $2 per 1,000 views, the repeat counted once, for 25 credits.
Upload the sheet your creators, clippers or ambassadors filled in, or paste the Reel links. Nolyn reads each Reel's public view count, likes and comments, flags repeated links and posts without views, and gives you the same table back with the stats in new columns: engagement rate and, if you set a rate per 1,000 views, the payout for each Reel. Every row and column stays where it was. Download it as Excel or CSV.

Example: your sheet, filled in
A small submissions sheet with three columns of its own and a row still waiting for its link. Everything on the left stays as it was; the shaded columns are what Nolyn adds.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| @gymshark | instagram.com/reel/DfQAmNeICaO/ | yes | 605765 | 33917 | 86 | ok | |

The sheet is an illustration; the counts are from the November 3, 2026 run below. The fourth row is a carousel, which has no view count. The delivered file also has checked_shares and checked_saves (“not public” on Instagram), checked_er_pct, and checked_payout if you set a rate.
Example: 10 Gymshark and Rare Beauty Reels, a carousel and a repeat
A real run on November 3, 2026 with 12 links pasted the way a campaign sheet collects them: five Gymshark Reels (one posted five minutes before the check), a Gymshark x Sam Sulek teaser from @gymsharklifting, four Rare Beauty Reels from its Delena campaign, a Gymshark carousel post, and the second Reel again as a /p/ link with a ?utm_source tracking parameter. The pay rate was $2 per 1,000 views.

Views are the play counts Instagram returns for each Reel at the time of the check. Engagement rate = (likes + comments) ÷ views: Instagram does not show shares or saves publicly. Payout = views ÷ 1,000 × $2, before any cap.
Four Reels earned 82% of the payout
A giveaway Reel drew over 50 times the comments
A carousel has likes but no views
Check on your payout date
Every figure was recomputed from the saved Instagram responses of this run (evidence file in our repository). The 11 distinct posts took 11 lookups at 2 credits each, 22 data credits, plus 3 for the written summary. Counts keep growing while Reels get views; each run shows its collection time.
How the Reels views checker works
Read the links
Every Instagram, TikTok and YouTube link is found in what you paste, in order. Tracking parameters and account names in the path are removed, and a link that repeats an earlier Reel by its shortcode is flagged.
Look up each Reel once
Each distinct Reel or post is looked up from its public data: views, likes, comments, account and publish date.
Retry what failed
A lookup that fails or comes back empty is tried once more with a second data source. Failed lookups are not charged.
Build the table
Rows come back in your order with engagement rate and payout, as a table and a CSV, with a short summary of totals, top Reels and the links to check.
Who uses the Reels views checker
Agencies paying creators or clippers per view
Brands running influencer or UGC campaigns
Managers reporting a campaign
Limits
Only public Reels and the counts Instagram shows publicly at the moment of the lookup. Nolyn cannot read Instagram Insights: no shares, saves, reach, accounts reached, watch time or paid views. Accounts that hide like counts show no likes. Photo and carousel posts have no view count. Private, deleted and age- or region-restricted Reels come back as not read. Up to 300 links per run; split bigger lists. Uploads can be Excel, CSV or TSV files up to 3 MB; the delivered file keeps values, not formulas or formatting. Numbers keep changing while a Reel gets views, so run the check on your payout date.

Questions
Sign in with Google and you get 100 one-time free credits, no card required: about 45 Reels at 2 credits each, plus a few credits for the written summary. You can read the example and fill in the form without an account.
About 200 credits for the lookups (2 per Instagram link) plus a few for the summary. The form shows the estimate for your list before you run it. A repeated link is looked up once, and failed lookups are not charged. TikTok and YouTube links in the same list cost 1 credit each.
Yes. Upload the Excel or CSV file, or paste the cells: Nolyn finds the link column, keeps every row and column in place, and adds checked_views, checked_likes and the other stats as new columns, so your own numbers are not overwritten. An empty column named Views, Likes, Comments, Shares or Saves is filled in instead of getting a new one. Rows with no link stay as they are, with the reason in check_note. From Google Sheets, download the sheet as Excel or copy the cells; there is no live connection.
No. Instagram shows only views, likes and comments publicly; shares, saves, reach and watch time are in the creator's Insights. Ask creators for an Insights screenshot if your contract pays on those.
Instagram's official API returns Reel views and Insights only for accounts that log in and connect to your app, so it does not work for Reels posted by creators on their own accounts. This checker reads the public numbers of any public Reel without that setup.
They are the public counts Instagram returns for each Reel at the time of the lookup. They can differ from what the creator sees in Insights, which updates on its own schedule. Each run records its collection time.
Yes. /reel/, /reels/, /p/ and /tv/ links, links like instagram.com/account/reel/…, and instagr.am links all work; tracking parameters are removed. The same Reel pasted as two different links is counted once.
Instagram counts views only for video. Photo and carousel posts get likes and comments but no view count, so they get no payout; the table keeps them in place so you can ask for the Reel link.
Yes, paste them in one list. TikTok also shows shares and saves, so for a mixed list the bulk TikTok views checker page explains those columns; the form and the table are the same.
You can start free: new accounts get 100 one-time credits, no card required. That covers about 45 Reels, in one or several runs. Failed lookups are not charged and a repeated link is looked up once. Paid plans add monthly credits: Plus has 1,500, enough for about 700 Reels a month.
To run it, yes: sign in with Google. It is free and asks for no card. You can read the example and fill in the form before signing in.
