I’ve browsed a couple of topics regarding this.
This topic was solved that it doesn’t return e-mail which doesn’t really help:
https://meta.discourse.org/t/configuring-instagram-login-for-discourse/51642
Has anyone configured Instagram login for their forum? Is this possible? Is there a guide?
A massive part of my target audience is primarily on Instagram, so this would be considered essential for my forum. Thank you.
It’s just OAuth2.0, for which a plugin exists. You should start by reading their documentation:
I don’t think a plugin is necessary, is it? Do I have to do this using Custom OAuth2?
If so, perhaps there should be a change on the existing result for Instagram logins in Admin settings, if the DD has changed.
A step-by-step guide would be helpful as this differs from other auths, as the topic in OP clearly states.
It is and yes. Instagram doesn’t send back an email address via the API so Discourse has nothing to key on. You’re starting from scratch here, I’m afraid.
Thank you for the response.
Perhaps deprecate the Instagram section in Admin settings for logins to prevent users from being confused, then?
Yeah, that probably makes sense @codinghorror
I don’t know, maybe, I’m unsure why we ever added this if it never worked properly. What do you think @sam?
Wait, it should work fine without email, you still get to forget 1 password, which is awesome.
We would ask you for your email on first signup and then confirm it.
Also associate account should work.
Agree we should have some sort of official howto here like the other providers have.
@hawk maybe community team can take this as a writing-a-howto test, if we don’t like it after testing it in the process of writing the howto, we can pull it.
In regards to this, I’ve fiddled around with it a bit and it seems to work fine, at least in Sandbox Mode, contrary to what I’ve been told before, and contrary to what I was told in this thread. It did take a long time going across websites to find some help with the docs, as I’m not as tech-savvy as some.
The only difference I’ve come across compared to other authentications, is the same which is stated here:
https://meta.discourse.org/t/configuring-instagram-login-for-discourse/51642/15?u=hanzo1
When he says “convince” he means a Screencast, showing the ins-and-outs of what you intend to do. I sent in a 3 minute screencast showing the admin panel’s Instagram feature, the logging in, logging out, and the keys I generated in the Developer API for Instagram.
I have confirmed that although OAuth2 is the recognized standard, it is not required for this to work. I have an account, working, that has signed up, and logged in, with Instagram’s authentication as-is on Discourse, no OAuth2 or Plugin necessary.
That being said, no more than ten individuals can sign up, before Sandbox Mode locks itself. Once it is approved, it will leave Sandbox Mode, and go to “Live”.
Here is a pic of the page, showing status, on Instagram:
Why it is so difficult, I have no idea; as the OP’s thread states, it should be in line with FB’s, given FB owns IG, but I guess not. Screencast is required.
Thanks to @jennlevbird we now have a howto
https://meta.discourse.org/t/configuring-instagram-login-to-use-with-discourse/111410
We tested the process and confirm it is working.
Hi Sam, thanks so much for this update I appreciate your support. This is great.

Instagram 로그인 대신 Facebook 로그인이 도입되었습니다.
이것은 여전히 권장 사항일 뿐인가요, 아니면 실제로 API가 비활성화되었나요? 완전히 비활성화되었다면, 해당 기능을 Discourse 코어에서 제거해야 합니다.
수정: @Canapin님이 한 발 앞서셨습니다
기술 기업들이 선호하는 표현인 "소프트 리무브(soft removal)"라고 가정하고 있습니다. 즉, 기존에 사용하던 사람은 몇 년 더 사용할 수 있지만, 새로운 가입은 불가능하다는 뜻이죠. (실제로 확인은 해보지 않았습니다.)
삭제된 토픽에서 @edbobkov 님이 이렇게 썼습니다:
기본 디스플레이(Basic Display)는 인증 도구가 아닙니다 . API가 반환하는 데이터는 앱 사용자를 인증하거나 앱에 로그인하는 데 사용할 수 없습니다. 앱에서 API 데이터를 사용하여 사용자를 인증하는 경우, 앱 심사(App Review) 과정에서 거부됩니다. 인증 솔루션이 필요하시다면 대신 Facebook Login을 사용하세요.
따라서 비즈니스 계정 소유자에게만 제공되는 것입니다.
"앱 심사 과정에서 거부된다"는 표현은 제게는 "기존 설정은 계속 작동한다"는 의미로 들립니다.
또한, 그들은 팬데믹이 거의 끝날 때까지 기다렸다가 비로소 사용을 중단하도록 압박을 시작할 것이라고 단정 짓고 싶습니다.
