Instagram API

gistfile1.txt

BEHOLD I HAVE SLAYED THE VILE INSTRAGRAM API!

Should you need to do the same...

Regsiter a new client here
https://www.instagram.com/developer/clients/manage/

Fill in valid detail etc etc

And you'll get a Client ID

Stick that client id into this URL

https://www.instagram.com/oauth/authorize/?client_id=CLIENTID&redirect_uri=REDIRECT-URI&response_type=token

and also replace REDIRECT-URI with the redirect URL you entered when registering the client

Hit enter and behold!

You get an error (edited)

Stating that "Implicit authentication is disabled"

Go back into your client page, go to Security and untick '  Disable implicit OAuth:'

and the resubmit the earlier URL

AND BEHOLD!

You get redirected to your redirect URL

BUT BEHOLD!!!!

in the URL there will be an access key

and you can use that to <s>beat the demogorgon</s> get your pictures

(and afterwards you probably want to re-tick Disable implicit OAuth, this might break things but we'll find out)
