I am using Ionic Cloud to login with Instagram,

`this.auth.login('instagram').then(result: {signup: boolean, token: string} => { });`

But when I call the API with access\_token parameter being the token I received from the login (or this.auth.getToken()) I get a 400 error.

Endpoint: `https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/{USER_ID}/media/recent/?access_token={ACCESS_TOKEN}`

Error thrown:

```auto
{
    "meta": {
        "error_type": "OAuthAccessTokenException",
        "code": 400,
        "error_message": "The access_token provided is invalid."
    }
}

```

How can i get real instagram access\_token value with ionic service?

You are all talking about Ionic Auth, right?

Note the deprecation notice here: [http://docs.ionic.io/services/auth/](http://docs.ionic.io/services/auth/) Ionic Auth will go away. Maybe you don’t want to invest any more time here.
