Generate an Instagram API Token
I was recently tasked with implementing an Instagram feed that shows the latest Instagram posts on a website. Due to recent changes to the Instagram API it was a bit challenging to find any good up-to-date information on how to implement this. Instagram announced end of last year that they’ll be deprecating their Legacy API Platform on March 2, 2020 (later postponed to June 29, 2020 due to COVID-19). The new API, known as Basic Display API, offers more fine-grained privacy settings and deprecations of some fields such as location data and follower count.
