I tried using the command-line tool as per the original docs(https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-basic-display-api/getting-started), but no luck...

Here's what to do in 3 easy steps:

1. First thing: Install Postman https://www.postman.com/downloads/
2. Make a POST request to https://api.instagram.com/oauth/access_token with the parameters in the body, NOT the params. Make sure that the x-www-form-urlencoded option is enable.
3. You should now get a status of 200 OK and a response with both access_token and user_id.

{
    "access_token": "IGQVJYUXlDN...",
    "user_id": 17841400...
}

Happy days!!
