I am trying to use pagination to get multiple posts based on hashtags. however, when I try to fetch using

InstaClient.getHashtagPosts(hashtag, maxCount, pageId)
  .then((posts) => console.log(posts))
  .catch((err) => console.error(err));

It throws an error saying

TypeError: Cannot read property '1' of null
    at Insta._getQueryHashs (/home/scrapers/insta-scrape/node_modules/scraper-instagram/index.js:326:57)
    at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:96:5)
    at async Insta.getHashtagPosts (/home/scrapers/insta-scrape/node_modules/scraper-instagram/index.js:414:7)

Although, I've fixed it by commenting the story option in queryHash, I'm getting limited posts in response. I want to scrape 100+ posts using hashtags. The doc says authentication needed but how to add it here in this function?

Kindly help me with this.
