I’m using default Instagram API, but when I try to fetch comments on posts, I’m getting a response with data empty, even when I know that there are comments on the post.
https://www.instagram.com/developer/endpoints/comments/
So when I tried to report it, it told me to migrate to Instagram Graph API. I searched, its look it’s for personal use for business, I was building a raffle website helper, randomly pick a winner from a comment, and this broke my project.

So I’m confused because when I access Instagram Developer website says to gonna to new Instagram Graph API, but here, I got a message that it’s just for business accounts, but I already have registered my app with “facebook login” like the links you have sent to me
See demo what I’m building: https://youtu.be/DmVN5t0dRaY

This is deprecated by Instagram. It’s not really telling you to use the Graph API, it’s saying that this is the way they are going and the Graph API is intended for business that want to maintain their own page and interact more successfully with Instagram users.
Instagram still offers an endpoint
GET /users/self/media/recent
That should suit your needs.
