just not authentificate with right login&password

It just failed to authenticate with the correct username and password. I am registered in Threads via Instagram. This means that the username and password must match the Instagram ones. They do not fit, throws an exception: Username or password are invalid. Or do I need to get a different password for Threads somewhere?

No just same instagram username and password. Try again

I'm having the same problem. I can't login but my username and password are correct

Hey ariwasch, your Instagram username and password should work. Did you call the .login() function with them directly, or did you place them in environment variables?

It works now, I had to remove os.environ.get from the login info
