How can I make sure my access token to Instagram API does not expire?

I have a server that needs to pull the images that I have posted to my Instagram feed. I have read through the Instagram developer documentation and found out how to retrieve an access token.

My question - or doubt - is this: Is it possible to make sure that the access token does not expire? From reading the Instagram documentation it seems that the token will expire after 5000 queries. But I am not sure whether that is the case. So I am interested in hearing from anyone who has experience with the new Instagram API (the one where you need to get approved to get out of the sandbox) and who can tell me if the connections actually do expire or not.

You can't, you have to get a new one when the one you use expires:Instagram OAuth API
