have you tried using your email address instead of username?

ak-47-brar commented 10 months ago

yes already tried but not worked

diezo commented 10 months ago

i'll need more context into this issue. are you on discord? we can discuss it there: https://discord.com/invite/pU4knSwmQe

my username: @notdiezo

no man not on discord

@ak-47-brar if you had 2fa enabled on your account, that could be the reason.

2FA has now been implemented and you can log into your account as usual.

thanks.

ak-47-brar commented 10 months ago

no 2fa not enabled

try changing your password to a stronger one because weak password throws a checkpoint required error.

ak-47-brar commented 10 months ago

ok I'll try

i looked into this issue and turns out this could be because you're using a flagged IP address, probably deployed your app to cloud. because instagram doesn't allow requests from common cloud providers. possible solutions would be to use quality proxies. if that doesn't work either, then you have to generate session_id on your local machine and use it while initializing SessionHost class in the cloud while using proxies. i've tried webshare.io proxies and it works except for the login endpoint.
