Can I get likes by specific user using Instagram API? I saw this in Windows Phone app, but I can't find it in API docs. Is it possible?

The API can be used to get and publish their media, manage and reply to comments on their media, identify media where they have been @mentioned by other Instagram users, find hashtagged media, and get basic metadata and metrics about other Instagram Businesses and Creators.
Can you see what someone likes on Instagram? No, you are no longer able to see exactly what other people have liked on Instagram. Previously on the app, there was a 'following' tab that gave users updates about what people they followed were doing, including posts they liked and commented on.
In general, you can find a post's likes below it on Instagram. To see how many likes a post of a video has, first tap the view count below the video. From there, you can see the number of likes a video has and who's liked it.
In 2018, Instagram shut down its public API. Meaning, third-party apps can no longer access the API from Instagram without permission. Third-party apps now need to be approved by Instagram before they can access the API.
If I understand this correctly, you wish to get the most recently liked photos of a particular user.
This can be done using the Instagram API - but only when that particular user has authenticated your app.
You can use the following endpoint:
GET /users/self/media/liked
Here the API call would be :
https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self/media/liked?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN
This will give you the list of recent media liked by the owner of the ACCESS-TOKEN.
