Instagram Standalone option registration errors#1155

Description

馃摐 Description

The documentation at https://docs.postiz.com/providers/instagram#instagram-standalone-option is difficult to understand, but I finally got the Add Channel to give this error:

Sorry, this page isn't available.

When I looked at the URL it was showing

https://www.instagram.com/oauth/authorize?enable_fb_login=0&client_id=%3D%20%"REDACTED"%22&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2FREDACTED_URL%2Fintegrations%2Fsocial%2Finstagram-standalone&response_type=code&scope=instagram_business_basic%2Cinstagram_business_content_publish%2Cinstagram_business_manage_comments%2Cinstagram_business_manage_insights&state=REDACTED

But when I changed to

REDACTED

(ie - I changed the URL to just &client_id=REDACTED&redirect_uri and no encoding in the client_id

then I get the IG approval dialog and I can Agree, this directs me back to my self-hosted Postiz with the message

Adding channel, Redirecting You

But the channel never gets added and if I refresh I get

Could not add provider.
You are being redirected back

馃憻 Reproduction steps

  1. Follow IG standalone documentation precisely https://docs.postiz.com/providers/instagram#instagram-standalone-option

馃憤 Expected behavior

After creating the app in Instagram, Postiz should connect properly.
