The whole setup runs about two minutes
Adding an Instagram feed to an actor website is a short job, not a development project. The setup lives in the site admin under Integrations, in the section marked Instagram, behind a Set It Up button.
Instagram Integration on Web For Actors Websites
A step by step walkthrough of connecting an Instagram feed to an actor website, from the admin panel to the access token.
6 Things Actors Should Know About Adding an Instagram Feed to Their Website
Drawn from what is actually said on camera, so you can decide whether to spend the 3:39 watching it.
Reach the admin by pressing the Escape key
From the live site, hitting Escape opens the admin panel. From there, go to Integrations, find Instagram, and click Set It Up to start the walkthrough.
Your details are already filled in for you
The setup screen pre-populates the fields you will need, including your domain name, your name and your phone number. You copy those values across into Instagram's form rather than typing them from scratch.
Register a new client inside your Instagram developer account
Once signed in to Instagram, go to developer sign up, then Manage Clients, then Register a New Client. Fill in application name, description, company name, website URL, valid redirect URI, privacy policy and contact email using the values supplied on the setup page.
Uncheck Disable Implicit OAuth before you register
Click the Security tab at the top of the registration form and uncheck the disable implicit OAuth box, then register. Skipping this step will stop the connection from working.
Paste the client ID, then the access token, then reload
Copy the Instagram client ID into the setup field and save, then click the authorization link and copy the resulting access token back into the field asking for it. The feed pulls in your last four images immediately, and reloading the site shows it in the footer.
