title: How to access Instagram feed of any user with new Graph API?
body: <p>Facebook recently introduced <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api/v2.10" rel="noreferrer">Instagram Graph API</a>, which allows to fetch data from Instagram page that is connected to your Facebook company page, <strong>instagram.com/developers</strong> states:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The <strong>Instagram Graph API</strong> is Now Available to All Developers.<br>
    For Non-Business Instagram Accounts please continue to use the <strong>existing Instagram API</strong>.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>So, for example, if my company has account <code>instagram.com/my_first_company</code>, I can only retrieve its feed and no one else.</p>
  
  <p>Using old Instagram API to retrieve public_content permission (access to any feed) is no longer an option too, from <a href="https://www.instagram.com/developer/authorization/" rel="noreferrer">old API documetation</a>:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>public_content - to read any public profile info and media on a user’s
    behalf <strong>(applications no longer accepted)</strong></p>
  </blockquote>

  <ul>
  <li>What will happen to existing tools that have <code>public_content</code> permission? (for example, there are tons of plugins for various CMS that allow to display recent Instagram photos)</li>
  <li>Is there any valid way to access <code>public_content</code> (access to any feed) right now (besides fetching HTML pages of Instagram website)?</li>
  <li>Are there any plans to enable Graph API for non-business customers, of so when?</li>
  </ul>
  
  <hr>
  
  <p>UPD. There seem to be <code>?__a=1</code> endpoint that allows to get access to recent photos of any public feed without any tokens. But it's not official and no one knows when/if Instagram will close it. If you do - please let me know.</p>
  
  <p>UPD 2. Instagram removed <code>?__a=1</code> endpoint, not sure for how long, probably forever. Currently the only way to access instagram feed is to scrap instagram.com website, which is a horror. </p>
