 The instagram API Extractor requires access to a running instance of the InstagrAPI server. 
 We have a lightweight script with the endpoints required for our Instagram API Extractor module which you can run locally, or via Docker.
 
-To run this you need to install some additional requirements.
 
-## Setup
-
-Although there is an option to run the server in a Docker container, the authentication is usually rejected without an additional session file, which can be created by running the server locally first.
 
 ⚠️ Warning: Remember that it's best not to use your own personal account for archiving. [Here's why](../installation/authentication.md#recommendations-for-authentication).
+## Quick Start: Using Docker
+
+We've provided a convenient shell script (`run_instagrapi_server.sh`) that simplifies the process of setting up and running the Instagrapi server in Docker. This script handles building the Docker image, setting up credentials, and starting the container.
+
+### 🔧 Running the script:
+
+Run this script either from the repository root or from within the `scripts/instagrapi_server` directory:
+
+```bash
+./scripts/instagrapi_server/run_instagrapi_server.sh
+```
+
+This script will:
+- Prompt for your Instagram username and password.
+- Create the necessary `.env` file.
+- Build the Docker image.
+- Start the Docker container and authenticate with Instagram, creating a session automatically.
+
+### ⏱ To run the server again later:
+```bash
+docker start ig-instasrv
+```
+
+### 🐛 Debugging:
+View logs:
+```bash
+docker logs ig-instasrv

 ##  Notes
 
-- You only need to run the server **locally once** to generate a session.
 - Never share your `.env` or `instagrapi_session.json` — these contain sensitive login data. 
 - If you want to reset your session, simply delete the `secrets/instagrapi_session.json` file and re-run the local server.
