Description

The existing Instagram API is deprecated and will be Sunset on June 29th, 2020.

The replacement is the Instagram Basic Display API. This is an entirely new OAuth provider.

One potential issue I see is the naming of the provider. We will want to keep the existing Instagram provider in place.
