Looking for working VIX data example

I have been looking for an example of VIX dataset download but everything I find fails. Is there a current working example of downloading VIX dataset?

do you have a brokerage account at IB? then its easy. you can also download the data from CBOE.... depends on what you need in what resolution

I would like to use it for back-testing. Open and closing prices would be sufficient for now.
