Load instagram images from user's feed via API

0
0

I am trying to display only the images the client uploaded to instagram on their website. The client's user ID# is 176722013. According to the API this URL will provide just such a feed:https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/176722013/media/recent

As indicated by the error message, I need to provide either a client_id or an auth_token. Since I don't want to deal with authentication I went ahead and created an "app" in instagram developers to get a client_id # 5b5a6e95469f465f9f70e4ebcf9ee3a6

Yet when I add it to the URL I still get an error that I needed to provide an auth_token. How does that make sense?https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/176722013/media/recent?client_id=5b5a6e95469f465f9f70e4ebcf9ee3a6

The app is in sandbox mode. When I attempt to submit it for review I must provide the purpose for the app. Upon selecting " I want to display my Instagram posts on my website." as the purpose I get the following message:

You do not need to submit for review for this use case. If you are a developer and you want to display Instagram content on your website, then you do not need to submit your app for review. By using a client in sandbox mode, you can still access the last 20 media of any sandbox user that grants you permission.

I am truly at a loss for how to proceed. Thanks for any support
