Switch between access tokens #21

Description

Instagram allows 5000 requests per hour.
One way to fix it is to switch between access tokens, i.e. create 10 account and switch every 6 minute to make sure the request limit won't be acceded.

Solution 1:

  1. Use a timer
  2. Every 6 minutes the access token will be changed
    Solution 2:
  3. Create a database to log every time a request is being made
  4. Compare the first value added with the new one, use time formatting on each value "added 2015-01-01 20:00:00)
  5. If the requests is below 4500, change to the next access token
