I am trying to build a simple application to get a users latest instagram posts. I have followed all of Facebooks 'Get Started' guide, and am using the following URL to connect to the Instagram Authorization window: "https://api.instagram.com/oauth/authorize?client_id={MY CLIENT ID INSERTED HERE}&redirect_uri=https://localhost:3000/handleAuth&scope=user_profile,user_media&response_type=code"

No matter what I do, the only response I can get from Instagram is:

{"error_type": "OAuthException", "code": 400, "error_message": "You must include a valid client_id, response_type, and redirect_uri parameters"}

Does anyone have any experience with this issue? Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

It turns out using the url for the Authorization Window as the form action url does't work for some reason. I've switched to a function that uses window.location.href = (authorization window URL), which is now working.
