Is there on Instagram an official way to get photos according to hashtag but from ALL users and not only from the one related to the client id?

Question

I know it's super easy to retrieve photos from Instagram according to a specific hashtag from your own profile (with the client id used in the connection to the library), but I could not find anything official to retrieve photos with an hashtag, independently by the users.

So, for instance, if my hashtag was test , an API grabbing a PHP object containing photos as in this link as in the following code

$o_instagram = new Instagram($s_client_id);
$o_media = $o_instagram->searchTags($s_hashtag);

Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

have a look at the following endpoint

https://instagram.com/developer/endpoints/tags/#get_tags_media_recent

I'm not sure how it looks in their php library but in ruby is is something along the lines of Instagram_client.tag_recent_media(:tag)

It's paginated in order of most recent first
