There will be occassions when your token for the Instagram API expires or is invalidated.

There are a few reasons that this could happen:

  • - Your subscription has lapsed and we have not processed the scheduled refresh of the token
  • - The account owner of the Instagram account has changed their account password
  • - Instagram has invalidated the token due to an internal security policy

Activating the token

Fortunately the process to re-active and refresh the token is a simple one. Log in to your Instant Tokens account and simply go through the steps to add the Instagram account as if it were a new account. This process will update the information we have for the Instagram account and generate a new long lived token.

Activating an expired token for an Instagram account

If your subscription has lapsed, ensure that you have a valid subscription before re-adding the Instagram Account. Without a valid subscription your request to retrieve the token will be denied.
