Instagram API deprecation

Question

I have an app that uses Instagram Login to use authenticate the users to the APP and the API which I using for this shown below

http://api.instagram.com/oauth/authorize/?client_id={client_id}&redirect_uri=http://localhost:8585&response_type=code

Is this API is going to deprecate should I move to Instagram basic display API for the same

Thanks in advance :)

Based on what is written here, you shouldn't use Instagram Basic Display API for authentication users to login to mobile app, but only to read and display data from Instagram. If your app uses API data to authenticate users, it will be rejected during App Review. You should use rather Facebook Login for authentication.
