Kept getting error: "FacebookInvalidCredentialsException: Was not able to login to Facebook. You may also have been rate limited. Try to connect to Facebook manually."

I’ve made multiple attempts but continue to receive the error: FacebookInvalidCredentialsException: Unable to login to Facebook. Please verify your credentials. You may have been rate limited. Attempt to connect to Facebook manually.

When I tried to log in manually, it requested email or phone verification.

I think the code needs to be revised to handle this scenario. It should select email verification in the backend and prompt the user to check their email and input the verification code.

Seems the login functionality is busted:

My code just had simple:

from meta_ai_api import MetaAI
ai = MetaAI(fb_email="XXXXXX@gmail.com", fb_password="XXXXXXXX")

And I know I am using right email pass combo.

I am also facing the same issue. Is anybody came to know about resolution?

Facebook now seems to be requiring a 2FA on each connection, making the connection fail

would love to get a workaround for this
