Can't scrape data in instatouch user proxy #25

Closed neosce closed 3 years ago

neosce commented 3 years ago

When trying to instatouch user natgeo -p 'user: password@11.111.111.11: 1010' it throws a Scrape can't date error, but when using likers 'B7wOyffArc5' the proxy works. Was this by design?

When you use proxy you also need to set an active session so that instagram will give you access to the user page

Update to instatouch@2.3.0 and use --session to set session id

Session can be extract from the browser with inspector tool

Session id example: sessionid=BLBLBLBLLBL
