.get_user_id_from_username() returns None for valid usernames #40

It worked yesterday, but something happened between now and then to make it stop working.

I used zuck as the username, but when I did threads_api.get_user_id_from_username('zuck'), it returned None instead of a valid username.

Is this something wrong in my code or a bug?

The Instagram (Threads) API has stability issues for some API calls. If you call it 10 times, does it succeed on some/most, or fail on all?

It seems to fail all 10 times. But I might be mistaken, I started to encounter this problem a few hours ago.

I suggest you set the LOG_LEVEL to DEBUG and re-run your script. The http response printed may give a clue as to why it had failed.

Please share the results and I'll be glad to look into it.
