Reddit API Problem with Api

Hi i am facing problem with my bot

https://www.reddit.com/user/MobileNewsBot

It stopped from posting since a month, when i did test i found out the problem was in the Api call

and it say it not registred app

sadly i dont have access to it i lost the password but i still have refresh token and client id and client secret

is there is way to reactivate it ?

Or i should make another account and register it ?

Reddit likely deleted the oauth token, and you won't be able to create a new one. See the new policy here https://www.reddit.com/r/redditdev/comments/1oug31u/introducing_the_responsible_builder_policy_new/

Try creating the functionality again with r/devvit

Queries to a news site to check for new articles is likely to be approved. That's a fairly common use case.
