PHP - Request Instagram api with PHP/Curl

instagram.php

<?php
//Get data from instagram api
$hashtag = 'max';

//Query need client_id or access_token
$query = array(
	'client_id' => '',
	'count'		=> 3
);
$url = 'https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/'.$hashtag.'/media/recent?'.http_build_query($query);
try {
	$curl_connection = curl_init($url);
	curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 30);
	curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
	curl_setopt($curl_connection, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
	
	//Data are stored in $data
	$data = json_decode(curl_exec($curl_connection), true);
	curl_close($curl_connection);

} catch(Exception $e) {
	return $e->getMessage();
}
?>

this not working

@YhorbyMatias Instagram recently (as in a month before your comment) changed their API to disallow things like requesting media for a hashtag except for by certain authorized accounts. Most applications can now only request feed data from the user whose access token they're using. Replace the query URL with a valid endpoint like https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self/media/recent/?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN and you'll get the expected results.

for me it's a bit complex... do i do 3 curl $url requests to instagram? code, token, hastag? do you have a small working sample? please?

thank you!

nice code - thank you

Thank you!!!

How can I do if I want to login the instagram?
