Same Error. Any fix?

[jerryan9999]

Same Error too, hope the answer

[burraksumer]

Yep, I got the same error, it might be about Instagram's new API changes.

Edit: for anyone who is having a hard time as myself, I recommend to take a look at this API, it works for me.

Thank you! Not just working like a charm but it has plenty of functions and examples, and its pretty up-to-date!
