Setup

### Step 1: Register a Facebook App

[](#step-1-register-a-facebook-app)

All Instagram API access goes through the Facebook Developers platform. You'll create a Facebook App, connect it to your Instagram Business or Creator account, and configure an OAuth redirect URL for this plugin.

See [docs/application-setup.md](docs/application-setup.md) for a step-by-step, screenshot-by-screenshot walk-through. When you finish that doc you will have an **Instagram App ID**, an **Instagram App Secret**, and an accepted Instagram Tester invitation — return here and continue below.

6. Click **Allow**
7. You'll be redirected back to WordPress. Your connection will appear as **Connected** in the plugin settings.
