While reading instagram basic display api documentation I get the sense that we cannot use this api for authentication. As they write under the limitation as:
Authentication — Instagram Basic Display is not an authentication solution. Data returned by the API cannot be used to authenticate your app users or log them into your app. If you need an authentication solution we recommend using Facebook Login instead.
But looking at their API reference I get they provide oauth tokens and authentication flow /scopes. Their getting started guide also list down steps to setup app. Anyone please explain what I am missing there ? I am looking for social login solution using instagram, thanks.
