How to get API access token?? #8

Open lucallmon opened 7 years ago

I'm confused on how to actually get the access token. I registered on the Instagram dev site, created a client. This comes with a client ID and client secret. But I can't figure out how to get the access token. I've read through the documentation and I can't seem to figure it out. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

This site has instructions. Give it a try.

It really a pain in the ass to get an access token from your instagram account. Would it be possible to just specifiy the URL and have easy access to other instagram account ?

Oh and thanks for your module, I'm using it with my own instagram account, but it would be nice to also being able to display picture from other users.

It would be something that requires some research. For me, my account was private and I wanted to see my own images on the mirror, thus I built the module as such.
