This quick tutorial will teach you how to get your token to make authed uploads via Imgur.
### 1. Registering an app
First of all, go add an app to your Imgur account by clicking on this link: https://api.imgur.com/oauth2/addclient
Set `Application name:` to whatever you want, `Authorization callback URL:` to a domain you control (or a dummy value like `example.org`) and `Email:` & `Description:` to your needs.
After this, you will get a `Client ID`, copy it.
### 2. Getting the token
To get the token, go to this link `https://api.imgur.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<client id>&response_type=token&state=askin-01` replacing `<client-id>` by the previously copied one.
After some loading (you may have to accept something from Imgur) you should get a response like this `https://<website.tld>/?state=askin-01#access_token=<token here>&expires_in=315360000&token_type=bearer&refresh_token=<refresh token>&account_username=<your nick>&account_id=<your id>`
Now, just copy the `<token here>` and paste it into the `Imgur Acces Token` field in the settings dialog of Glowing-Bear.
### 3. Getting a album hash
Go to Imgur, click on your album and look at the URL.
The URL should be structured like `https://imgur.com/a/<hash>`
As you may have guessed it, just copy the `<hash>` part and paste it into the "Imgur Album Hash" field in the Glowing-Bear's settings dialog.
