2. Login at http://instagram.com/developer/
3. Click on Manage Clients (in the header menu at http://instagram.com/developer/)
4. Click on Register a New Client
5.

In the Website and OAuth redirect_uri field,just enter the url of your Siberian Edition, like http://apps.mydomain.com. Uncheck “Disable implicit OAuth:”, enter the captcha and click on Register.
6. Now you have a Client ID and a Redirect URI
7.
