Any workaround for new Instagram API restriction with tags content

Leave a Comment

Hi i built a small module for my company's marketing team, which will fetch all the photos based on a hashtag (for example "nofilter")

So i have been using this URL with no problems until recently, Instagram decided to change their API authentication to OAuth:

https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/nofilter/media/recent 

I followed the new guidelines, however my client is still in sandbox mode and the API call doesn't return anything anymore, all what it returns is this:

{"pagination": {"deprecation_warning": "next_max_id and min_id are deprecated for this endpoint; use min_tag_id and max_tag_id instead"}, "meta": {"code": 200}, "data": []} 

I did a bit of research and it seems like i will need to submit my application to go be reviewed to go live. However it doesn't seem possible, this is what i found from their submission guideline:

Is there any workaround for this? Any help is very well appreciated, thanks!
