javascript - Instagram how to get access_token - Stack Overflow

I'm new to Instagram apps development and struggling with this issue for some time now. Basically, this is how it looks like:

I'm redirecting user to authorization url like this:

window.open("/?client_id=" + igClientId + "&redirect_uri=" + igCallbackUrl + "&response_type=code", "_blank");

Then, when user will login, page reloads and Instagram CODE is added at the end of callback url ('?code=returned_by_instagram_code').

And this is the place where I've stuck.

How can I obtain returned code from url after page reloads (it is stored in cookies or session so I could access it in some way, or should I get it somehow through callback url and some function attached to it)?

How next, when I'll obtain the code, can I send (POST) request to Instagram for access_token?

---

Thank you in advance for any help.

PS. I'm using javascript without any frameworks (e.g. jquery) and this is the response that I'm looking for.

• 1 This tutorial includes a link that generates your auth token and your user id. Then it goes on to show you what you can do with it. See here: blueprintinteractive./blog/… – Rivers Commented Jun 12, 2012 at 20:53

From the documentation on using Client-Side access token generation only (http://instagram./developer/authentication/) and the key thing you need to change is the responsecode in your URL to be: &response_type=token

Client-Side (Implicit) Authentication If you’re building an app that does not have a server ponent (a purely javascript app, for instance), you’ll notice that it’s impossible to plete step three above to receive your access_token without also having to ship your client secret. You should never ship your client secret onto devices you don’t control. Then how do you get an access_token? Well the smart folks in charge of the OAuth 2.0 spec anticipated this problem and created the Implicit Authentication Flow.

Step One: Direct your user to our authorization URL

https://instagram./oauth/authorize/?client_id=CLIENT-ID&redirect_uri=REDIRECTURI&response_type=token

At this point, we present the user with a login screen and then a confirmation screen where they approve your app’s access to their Instagram data. Note that unlike the explicit flow the response type here is “token”.

Step Two: Receive the access_token via the URL fragment

Once the user has authenticated and then authorized your application, we’ll redirect them to your redirect_uri with the access_token in the url fragment. It’ll look like so:

http://your-redirect-uri#access_token=270740070.f59def8.d58713f2c81741c5b3686109306f98b4

Simply grab the access_token off the URL fragment and you’re good to go. If the user chooses not to authorize your application, you’ll receive the same error response as in the explicit flow

A simple example, get your token in registration app on api.instagran (https://instagram./developer/clients/register/). Make your login before:

var accessToken = '5e6e329062f047dd95ggj6c9df202c828';

$.ajax({
 url: 'https://api.instagram./v1/media/popular',
 dataType: 'jsonp',
 type: 'GET',
 data: {client_id: accessToken},
 success: function(data){
    console.log(data);
    for(x in data.data){
      $('ul').append('<li><img  src="'+data.data[x].images.low_resolution.url+'"></li>');  
    }
},
error: function(data){
    console.log(data);
}

});

The igCallbackUrl will redirect to a page. The code can be accessed as a GET parameter to that request.

Something like GET['code'] in php. If you give more details about the Server side framework then it will be helpful to answer your qwery.

You can use github./Instagram/instagram-javascript-sdk if you are using on Javascript.
