Initial checklist

[X] I searched issues and couldn’t find anything (or linked relevant results below)

Link to runnable example

No response

Steps to reproduce

Instagram Consumer API is being deprecated Dec.4, 2024 which means that the Instagram import option will likely cease to function: https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2024/09/04/update-on-instagram-basic-display-api/

Expected behavior

Instagram API should continue to work or be removed. Is there any alternative?

Actual behavior

Instagram imports will cease to function after Dec. 4, 2024

Thanks for reporting. We may already be on the correct API but we'll double check.

For sure. From what I know though the permissions and API all use Instagram Basic Display which is what's being deprecated. Essentially their whole consumer API is just going away unfortunately. Which I think means no more Instagram import option, or it might just have to use the Business API and just be for businesses or creator accounts on Instagram.

I looked into it again and you're right. It doesn't matter whether we have API access, going forward it seems only users whose accounts are business or creator would be able to use our library 🤦

Ya unfortunately 😬 and I think in order to even provide that you'd have to use the other API they provide

No but that's my point, the other APIs only work for users with professional (creator/business) accounts. There seems to be no solution to keep @uppy/instagram in place for regular users.
