New Instagram API endpoint rules #7

A quote from Instagram's developer blog:

Guidelines for Publishing Likes and Relationships Actions New Apps

Starting today, any newly created client_id that wishes to issue POST and DELETE requests to the Likes or Relationships API endpoints will first have to request that access. This will follow the same process that we introduced for posting comments last year. Examples of use-cases that will be considered for access include:

Media rights management: for example a platform for media publishers and brands to request permission from the Instagram community to use Instagram content. Social media management: for example, a platform to help businesses integrate Instagram in their social media workflow. Developers who feel they have met the requirements and meet API terms can request access here.

Luckily, I was able to get my API client ID prior to this taking place.However, if an app has not posted a Like/Follow since January 1, 2015, that app will have until April 28, 2015 to make a formal request for access before access is turned off.

Thanks for putting this together, but it looks like the end :-1:
