Trying to start a new submission to request more permissions for our app w/ the Instagram API. Start A Submission button takes you to page that simply says "oops, there was an error." Happening w/ App Live, in Sandbox, and on both desktop and mobile. App as already been reviewed and approved; am seeking additional review for more permissions.
Anyone else experiencing or have a tip? I've submitted report to Instagram Developer Support.
The Instagram API often just says "Oops an error occured !" and donot give you any more information.
I think their servers timeout limit down.
Add the parameter distance=500, or even less, and you won't get this error any more.
Basically, in a high density area , you need to specify a small distance number, otherwise Instagram's server just times out while serving your request.

I'm trying to get all my instagram account feeds/images. But I found that the api has restriction for 20 feeds only. I can only get my latest 20 posts. But I want all my posts/feeds. I guess there is some way to do that cause I found some examples that is displaying all the feeds.
Any suggestions can be helpful. Thank you in adcance.
If you just signed up for API, you will be in Sandbox mode which has limitations
The behavior of the API when you are in sandbox mode is the same as
when your app is live, but comes with the following restrictions:
Data is restricted to sandbox users and the 20 most recent media from each sandbox user
Reduced API rate limits

Use have to submit request to instagram. Example for your case you can submit basic permission to read a user’s profile info and media. Step by step:
1. Create new client at https://www.instagram.com/developer/
2. Make video screencast of your app to tell how you use the permission
3. Go to manage tab -> permission tab and submit to instagram approval
Sandbox mode is now limited to 20 media calls. So when attempting to submit the app for review, choosing the option of
I want to display my Instagram posts on my website
prompts this response:
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.
So it would appear that my Instagram Client is now trapped at only 20 media calls at a time, and we can't seem to find a solution.
Anyone was able to get more than the last 20 pictures? Is instagram Api really this shit? Cant believe this
btw: theres alot of questions about this here, buts they are all outdated, since they changed their politics in 2016, im looking for a working solution.
Thanks in advance!

I received a notification from Facebook "Negative Feedback Warning"
"Our systems have flagged your app # for receiving a high amount of negative user feedback. Accordingly, we might be forced to place a temporary restriction on your app in order to protect the user experience on Platform. We ask you to promptly address this issue within 48 hours of the sending of this notice, after which our automated systems will evaluate your app once again. Please note we reserve the right to take action against your app even before the end of this 48 hour period.
Specifically, users are responding negatively to Stream stories from their friends using your app."
I was not able to view the negative user feedback on either the app page or in Insights. How can I view the user feedback to understand the problem and address it.
The message explains the problem: Your app is making posts that users dislike. As it says, "users are responding negatively to Stream stories from their friends using your app".
'Background processing' is a terrible term, but I can't think of a better one at this time on a Friday!
I need a specific part of my web app to communicate with twitter - post a status using a single, fixed account. Every twitter oauth tutorial I've seen talks about applications in the general sense - those with multiple users. Does anyone have an example of basic twitter status updating via a non-interactive process?
OK, after a lot of searching and hair-pulling, the answer seems to be:
Go to your app settings page on twitter
Click the 'My Access Token' button in the right hand column
Take a note of the sccess token details on this page
Follow these instructions to use the single-use token details
